Ammonia-water absorption heat and mass transfer in microchannel absorbers with visual confirmation.
Author(s) : MEACHAM J. M., GARIMELLA S.
Summary
An experimental investigation of an ammonia-water absorber that utilizes microchannel tube arrays was conducted. Liquid ammonia-water solution flows in the falling-film mode around an array of small diameter coolant tubes, while vapour flows upward through the tube array counter current to the falling film. Visual documentation of the flow in this absorber also confirmed the significantly improved flow distribution and higher participation of the surface in the heat and mass transfer process.
