Heat and Mass Transfer Coefficients Under Frost Conditions In A Finned-Tube Evaporator
The objectives of this study are to provide experimental data and a correlation that can be used in the optimal design of an evaporator under frost conditions. In the present study, we tested both a single stage and a two-stage evaporator with a variation of operating parameters and fin geometry under frost conditions. The effects of tube space and fin alignment on the heat transfer performance...
متن کاملTwo-phase flow in high-heat-flux micro-channel heat sink for refrigeration cooling applications: Part II—heat transfer characteristics
This paper is the second of a two-part study concerning two-phase flow and heat transfer characteristics of R134a in a micro-channel heat sink incorporated as an evaporator in a refrigeration cycle. Boiling heat transfer coefficients were measured by controlling heat flux (q00 = 15.9 93.8W/cm) and vapor quality (xe = 0.26 0.87) over a broad range of mass velocity. While prior studies point to e...
متن کاملImproving Heat Transfer in Falling Film Evaporators in Food Industries
Falling film evaporators, due to their high heat transfer coefficients, low energy loss, rather a low holdup time, and the ability to handle high capacities have broad applications in food industries. Thus, this kind of evaporator is being used in the production of temperature sensitive compounds such as syrups. In this study, through modelling of the falling film evaporator with the use of...
متن کاملPerformance analysis of organic Rankine cycle based on location of heat transfer pinch point in evaporator
The location of heat transfer pinch point in evaporator is the base of determining operating parameters of organic Rankine cycle (ORC). The physical mathematical model seeking the location of pinch point is established, by which, the temperature variations both of heat source and working fluid with UA can be obtained. Taking heat source with inlet temperature of 160 C as example, the matching p...
