Résumé

Zeotropic refrigerant blends have attracted wide interest due to their promises to reduce global warming potential as well as their potential ability to improve the performance of heat pumps and air conditioners. The complex phenomenon of non-isothermal phase change complicates condensation of zeotropic refrigerant mixtures and merits extensive investigation to better understand their performance profiles. The present work experimentally studied condensation heat transfer of R407C and R448A – two R134a-based zeotropic refrigerant mixtures – in a horizontal smooth tube, condensed by counter-current water cooling. Measurements for mass flux were in the range of 120 to 320 kg m − 2 s − 1 and saturation temperature in the range of 42 to 64 °C. Variation in refrigerant temperature and composition shift during condensation were quantitatively presented. The experimental data showed the effects of mass flux and saturation temperature on the heat transfer coefficients of R407C and R448A in different vapor quality regions. The analysis of heat and mass transfer resistances related to the flow regimes and refrigerant thermophysical properties provides a deep understanding of the condensation heat transfer of zeotropic refrigerant mixtures. The experimental data presented in this work are of value for the design of condensers.
