Air cooling coil performance under frosting conditions. 1. Performance measurement and results. 2. Modelling.

Summary

The performance of an air cooling coil has been studied under the following conditions: inlet air 0 deg C, variable heat flow and variable inlet air humidity. The impact of frost on the heat transfer coefficient is studied, as well as the frost density which depends on the air relative humidity. The authors have then tried to develop a mathematical model which determines the transition conditions between different frost densities.
