Author(s) : KARAGEORGIS A., HINOPOULOS G., KIM M. H.

Summary

Two phase condensation heat transfer and pressured drop characteristics of R-513A in a 9.52 mm O.D. horizontal microfin copper tube are investigated experimentally. Test facility has a straight test section with a length of 2.0 m and is cooled by cold water circulated in a surrounding annular space. The water-side annular space heat transfer coefficients are measured using the Wilson plot method. Average heat transfer coefficients and pressure drop data are reported at the condensation temperature of 35°C in range of 100-440 kg/m2s mass flux. The test data of R-513A are compared with those of R-134a, R-1234yf and R-1234ze(E).
