Summary

The article presents, the characteristics of a simple model of heat exchanger based on the air condenser of the air source heat pump. this is a simple helicoidal recuperator, tube-in-tube-type. Authors proposed and subjected to numerical analysis two methods to enhance the heat transfer. Obtained results are compared with reference model. Applied intensification to increased heat flux by 30% at high flow rate but increased the pressure drops up to 50%. In addition, material cost of proposed modifications is presented.
