Condensation of Refrigerant 11 Inside a Horizontal Tube : 2nd Report, Heat Transfer

Experimental and Theoretical Study on Condensation Heat Transfer of Nonazeotropic Refrigerant Mixtures R1234yf/R32 Inside a Horizontal Smooth Tube

The condensation heat transfer characteristics of nonazeotropic mixtures R1234yf and R32 (mass fractions of 0.52:0.48 and 0.77:0.23, respectively) inside a horizontal smooth tube (inner diameter 4 mm) were experimentally studied at mass fluxes ranging from 100 to 300 kg/m s. A prediction model for the forced convective condensation heat transfer characteristics of nonazeotropic refrigerant mixt...

Condensation Heat Transfer Coefficients of HFC245fa on a Horizontal Plain Tube

In this study, condensation heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of HCFC22, HCFC123, HFC134a and HFC245fa are measured on a horizontal plain tube 19.0 mm outside diameter. All data are taken at the vapor temperature of 39 with a wall subcooling temperature 3-8 . Test results show the HTCs of newly developed alternative low vapor pressure refrigerant, HFC245fa, on a smooth tube are 9.5% higher than...

Convective Heat Transfer of Oil Based Nanofluid Flow Inside a Circular Tube

Abstract   An empirical investigation was carried out to study convective heat transfer of nanofluid flow inside an inclined copper tube under uniform heat flux condition. Required data are acquired for laminar and hydrodynamically fully developed flow inside round tube. The stable CuO-base oil nanofluid with different nanoparticle weight fractions of 0.5%, 1% and 2% was produced by means of ul...

In Tube Evaporation Heat Transfer of Refrigerant Mixtures

Heat transfer coefficient data was taken during in-tube evaporation of five differenct refrigerant mixtures. These measurements were performed in a 318" O.D. (9.7 mm) smooth copper tube at refrigerant temperatures of -zoe and 4°C. Four different mass fluxes ranging from 125 to 375 kg/s-m2 were tested. On a mass basis, the five different mixtures tested were: R-125 (40%) I R-32 (60%), R-32 (30%)...
