ENHANCEMENT OF REFRIGERANT CONDENSATION.

Author(s) : MURPHY R. W., MICHEL J. W.

Summary

OVER THEPAST SEVERAL YEARS, OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY HAS BEEN DEVELOPING AND TESTING ENHANCED CONDENSATION HEAT TRANSFER SURFACES FOR USE WITH VARIOUS REFRIGERANTS. FROM A WIDE RANGE OF SINGLE-TUBE PARAMETRIC STUDIES, SELECTED DATA ARE PRESENTED TO ILLUSTRATE EFFECTS OF TUBE GEOMETRY, HEAT FLUX, WORKING FLUID, TUBE LENGTH, TUBE ORIENTATION, AND TUBE MATERIAL ON HEAT TRANSFER PERFORMANCE. AN APPLICATION OF THIS LABORATORY INFORMATION TO A FIELD HEAT EXCHANGER DESIGN IS DESCRIBED.
