Résumé

This paper presents the modelling and experimental results of wire-and-tube condensers that are commonly used in vapour compression cycle based domestic refrigerators. A condenser was experimentally tested in a real refrigerator under certain operating conditions. A simulation model was developed using the finite element and variable conductance approach, along with a combination of thermodynamic correlations. The condenser capacity per unit weight was optimized using a variety of wire and tube pitches and diameters. An optimization factor, fo, was defined as a ratio of the condenser capacity per unit weight of the optimized design and the present design. The application of this factor led to an improved design with a 3% gain in capacity and 6% reduced condenser weight.
