EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF HEAT COLLECTION FROM AIR IN COLD REGIONS USING A FLUIDIZED BED HEAT EXCHANGER.

Author(s) : TAKEUCHI H.

Summary

TO UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A FLUIDIZED BED HEAT EXCHANGER IN A CONDITION NEAR THE FREEZING POINT, EXPERIMENTS WERE PERFORMED IN A TEMPERATURE-HUMIDITY CONTROLLED ROOM. THE FLUIDIZED BED WAS 0.20 M-SQUARE AND THE FLUIDIZED PARTICLES WERE GLASS BEADS WITH MEAN DIAMETER 340 MICROMETERS. IT IS CONCLUDED THAT A FLUIDIZED BED HEAT EXCHANGER CAN PREVENT AND/OR REMOVE A FROST LAYER DEPOSITED ON THE COOLING SURFACE OF THE EVAPORATOR, AND PROMISES A HIGH VALUE OF HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT BETWEEN THE AIR AND THE EVAPORATOR.
