Summary

A SIMPLE THEORETICAL MODEL IS PROPOSED FOR FLOW PATTERNS AROUND THE LOUVERS OF COMPACT HEAT EXCHANGERS IN AIR CONDITIONERS. THE PURPOSE OF THE PAPER IS TO DETERMINE THE LOUVER ARRANGEMENT HAVING THE HIGHEST HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT AND THE LOWEST STATIC PRESSURE DROP. PERFORMANCE OF A NEWLY-DESIGNED, INCLINED LOUVERED FIN AND A FLAT TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER WAS CLARIFIED. THE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENT AND STATIC PRESSURE DROP OF AN OPTIMALLY INCLINED LOUVERED HEAT EXCHANGER IS 16% HIGHER AND 21 TO 27% LOWER THAN THOSE FOR CONVENTIONAL LOUVERED HEAT EXCHANGERS.
