HEAT TRANSFER UNDER FROSTING CONDITIONS TO PLAIN AND THICK-FINNED TUBES.

Author(s) : SAHAF J. al-, CORNWELL K.

Type of article: Article

Summary

THE STUDY CONSTITUTES AN EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF THE MASS AND HEAT FLOW AS THE FROST LAYER BUILDS UP ON A TUBE IN CROSSFLOW. A CLOSED-CYCLE AIR FLOW SYSTEM WITH CONTROLLED CONDITIONS IS USED TO EXAMINE PHOTOGRAPHICALLY THE FROST GROWTH ON A TUBE WHILE RECORDING THE THERMAL PARAMETERS. ADETAILED THERMAL ANALYSIS IS DEVELOPED TO GIVE AN OVER-ALL PREDICTION OF HEAT TRANSFER VARIATION WITH TIME. THE ANALYSIS IS EXTENDED TO COVER THICK-FINNED TUBES UNDER CONDITIONS IN WHICH THE AIR FLOW RATE IS A FUNCTION OF THE FROST BUILDUP. (PASCAL, Bibliogr. int., ENERG., FR., 230, N 7, 1991, 6927.
