Comparison of the air-side heat transfer coefficients of several types of evaporators of household freezer/refrigerators.

Author(s) : LEE T. H., LEE J. S., OH S. Y., et al.

Summary

The types considered in this study are: spine finned tube type (in-line tube array), continuous flat-plate fin-tube type (staggered tube array), and discrete flat-plate fin-tube type (in-line tube array). The computer programmes were coded using the section-by-section method similar to the tube-by-tube method to calculate the heat transfer coefficients from the experimental results of the heat exchangers. The results indicate that the air-side heat transfer performance of spine finned-tube type (in-line tube array) heat exchangers show the highest value among these three heat exchangers under dry conditions.
