An analytical model for hot-gas defrosting of a cylindrical coil cooler. 1. Model development. 2. Model results and conclusions.

Author(s) : MUTAWA N. K. al-, SHERIF S. A.

Summary

The purpose of these two papers is, first, to describe a mathematical model for predicting the evaporation, sublimation, and melting heat rates on a frosted cylindrical cooler during hot-gas defrosting (the frosted cylindrical cooler represents a single nonfinned tube in the first row of a typical coil employed in industrial refrigeration applications), and then to model the hot-gas defrosting process and quantify the effects of the different factors that influence it.
