Thermal performance of chilled-water cooling coils operating at low water velocities.

Summary

Experimental results have been presented that demonstrate that chilled-water cooling coils operating at low water-side Reynolds numbers do not perform as well as predicted by the manufacturer's software. An analysis revealed that this problem could be mitigated by using the Gnielinski correlation instead of Dittus-Boelter correlation to predict the water-side heat transfer coefficient.
