Résumé

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of very dilute concentrations of nanoparticles on the evaporative heat transfer of R-134a. Various nanoparticle/halocarbon combinations were prepared to check for dispersion compatibility including Al(2)O(3)/R-134a, Cu/R-134a, carbon nanotubes/R-134a, and SiO2/R-134a. The dispersion compatibility of other refrigerants such as R-22 and R-404A were also explored. In most cases, the dispersed particles agglomerated in the liquid and exhibited very rapid settling. However, in a few specific cases, the particles settled more slowly such that under normal flow conditions where mixing is present, the system may be able to maintain a good dispersion of nanoparticles. One such identified combination was SiO2/R-134a. For this combination, experiments were conducted with and without nanoparticle seeding in a conventional two-phase single-pass loop at a single volume fraction of 0.50%. The average aggregate length of these treated fumed silica particles was 200-300 nm while individual particles were tens of nanometers in size. The results show that the boiling heat transfer coefficient was reduced approximately 30% due to the nanoparticles in the refrigerant.
