Conductivité thermique longitudinale dans les évaporateurs à tubes ailetés.

Longitudinal heat conduction in finned-tube evaporators.

Auteurs : DOMANSKI P. A., CHOI J. M., PAYNE W. V.

Résumé

The paper evaluates performance of finned-tube evaporators at different refrigerant exit superheats to assess the impact of longitudinal heat conduction on capacity. A combination of capacity measurements obtained from laboratory testing, the pattern of measured return bend temperatures, and the theoretical analysis suggests the occurrence of tube-to-tube transfer via fins and rejects the tube longitudinal heat transfer as the possible causes of capacity degradation. The impact of tube-to-tube heat transfer was negligible in tests with a uniform 5.6°C superheat, but it was significant in tests involving 16.7°C superheat. The measured difference in capacity between two evaporators, in one of which tube-to-tube heat transfer was prevented by cuts in common fins, was as much as 23%. The level of capacity degradation was affected by air volumetric flow rate.
