A study on new Tri-Tube type evaporators in domestic refrigerators/freezers.

Author(s) : LEE J. S., LEE T. H., HAM S. H., et al.

Summary

This Tri-Tube evaporator involves the use of simultaneous extruded fin and tube in order to eliminate thermal contact resistance between fin and tube. As a result, lighter, more compact heat exchangers have been developed and have led to real gains in terms of cost-performance. The cycle matching and performance test is performed at 30 °C ambient temperature. Compared to the conventional system, the energy consumption of the present system is reduced by about 4%. The refrigeration and freezing times become about 10 minute shorter than the conventional system. R134a was used for the research.
