Abstract
This study presents a prediction method for heat transfer performance of a gas cooler of $CO_2$ heat pump using ${\epsilon}$-NTU method, and compared the results with the experimental data from the open literature. The heat transfer rate, refrigerant side outlet temperature and water side outlet temperature were calculated by using EES(Engineering Equation Solver)program in multi-tube-in-tube type $CO_2$ heat pump gas cooler. Analysis was performed in two methods : The first method performed without dividing into the test section by applying an analysis of the mean properties(mean analysis). The second method, tube length divided into 50 sections, was applied to the local properties(local analysis). From the present study, a good agreement at the local analysis was obtained between the analytical and experimental results by 0.3~1.1%, 1.31~1.88% and 3.12~5.18% for heat transfer rate, water and refrigerant side outlet temperatures, respectively.
