Type of article: Article

Summary

Experiments are conducted by condensing R22 inside a copper tube for a wide range of mass flux rates and condensing temperatures. The analytical results, compared with the experimental data and four other correlations reported in the literature indicate that 80% of the predictions are within more or less 25% of the experimental data, with a mean deviation of 15.3%.
