Résumé

CO2 flow condensation heat transfer coefficients and pressure drop are investigated for 0.89 mm microchannels at horizontal flow conditions. They were measured at saturation temperatures of -15 and -25°C, mass fluxes from 200 to 800 kg/m2.s, and wall subcooling temperatures from 2 to 4°C. Flow patterns for experimental conditions were predicted by two flow pattern maps, and it could be predicted that annular flow patterns could exist in most of flow conditions except low mass flux and low vapour quality conditions. Measured heat transfer coefficients increased with the increase of mass fluxes and vapour qualities, whereas they were almost independent of wall subcooling temperature changes. Several correlations could predict heat transfer coefficients within acceptable error range, and from this comparison, it could be inferred that the flow condensation mechanism in 0.89 mm channels should be similar to that in large tubes. CO2 two-phase pressure drop, measured in adiabatic conditions, increased with the increase of mass flux and vapour quality, and it decreased with the increase of saturation temperature. By comparing measured pressure drop with calculated values, it was shown that several correlations could predict the measured values relatively well.
