Summary

This analysis predicted that a condensing flow remains two-phase until the thermal equilibrium quality becomes negative due to condensate subcooling. This phenomenon at thermal equilibrium zero quality brings about a much higher heat transfer coefficient than the liquid single-phase flow value. To examine the validity of this analysis, an experiment was conducted using refrigerants R113 and R11 in the negative-quality region. Data obtained and other existing data for refrigerants R11 and R12 supported the analysis.
