Résumé

A large number of refrigeration systems operate on a stream that is not changing phase, i.e. has a finite heat capacity. The matching between the cooled stream and the evaporation of a pure refrigerant causes therefore significant irreversibility in the heat exchange. The use of mixtures is a well-known option for the mitigation of this problem. In this work, the use of a CO2-based mixture is proposed to allow the possibility of matching variable-temperature heat sources with the glide of the working fluid in the evaporator to minimize the heat exchange irreversibility. Modelling of a mini-channel evaporator by means of numerical techniques, accounting for the variable fluid composition, is presented. Several flow boiling correlations are assessed for pure CO2 (170<G<900) and CO2-propane blends (200<G<650). An optimized correlation for CO2-propane is proposed. As a final result, a high fidelity CO2 correlation for flow boiling is presented, which is also able to predict quite accurately the CO2-propane mixture heat transfer coefficient.
