Abstract

In this paper, we will introduce the overview of new project dealing how to increase of refrigeration cycle COP using nano-fluids, CuO, TiO2, Al2O3, that are used on similar previous studies. Recently many studies were performed to show the effect of nano-fluids at refrigeration cycle. But, the reason was not cleared yet. In general, the flow phenomena at the evaporator were guessed to be mixed with the partial pool boiling condition and the flow boiling condition from the previous results not published yet. So, we hope that the COP increase of refrigeration cycle will be verified and showed through this project.
