Résumé

In this paper, a distributed parameter (DP) numerical model with the new proposed flow boiling heat transfer correlation was established for parallel flow minichannel (PFMC) evaporator. DP model validation was made by comparing the measured values obtained on experimental studies, which were conducted under refrigerant mass flow rate range of 34.6-245.6 kgh-1 and evaporation pressure of 200-500 kPa. The effects of four different flow boiling heat transfer correlations on DP model performance were investigated. Results showed that the new correlation predicted 99% of experimental data in ± 30% error bands. Moreover, the DP model with the new correlation yielded the mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.5%, 9.1%, 18.8%, 14.2% and 19.8% in prediction of cooling capacity, outlet air temperature, refrigerant superheat, air side and refrigerant side pressure drop, respectively. The presented DP model can be implemented to evaluate the performance of PFMC evaporator, and therefore can save efforts on component and system design and optimization.
