AUGMENTATION OF IN-TUBE CONDENSATION OF R113 BY MEANS OF SURFACE ROUGHNESS.

Author(s) : LUU M., BERGLES A. E.

Summary

EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS ARE PRESENTED FOR CONDENSATION OF R113 IN TWO TUBES WITH HELICAL REPEATED-RIB INTERNAL ROUGHNESS AND FOR A THIRD SPIRALLY FLUTED TUBE. THE REPEATED-RIB TUBES INCREASED AVERAGE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS ABOUT 80% ABOVE SMOOTH TUBE VALUES, WHILE IMPROVEMENTS IN HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS FOR THE SPIRALLY FLUTED TUBE WERE APPROXIMATELY 50%. THE PRESSURE DROP INCREASE IN BOTH TYPES OF TUBES WAS LESS THAN 50%. A CORRELATION IS DEVELOPED FOR THE REPEATED-RIB TUBE DATA.
