An experimental evaluation of capillary tube-suction line heat exchanger performance with R152a.

Author(s) : BITTLE R. R., STEPHENSON W. R., PATE M. B.

Summary

Performance correlations predicting mass flow rate and effective subcooling were developed for R152a in household refrigerators from experimental data taken over a range of applicable operating boundary conditions and heat exchanger geometries. Due to the large number of variables that could potentially influence heat exchanger performance, statistical methods were employed in designing the test plan and in reducing the data. A comparison of the R152a results to experimental data for R12 was also done.
