Flow condensation heat transfer coefficients(HTCs) of R123 and R245fa are measured in a horizontal plain tube. The main test section in the experimental flow loop is made of a plain copper tube of 9.52 mm outside diameter and 530 mm length. The refrigerant is cooled by passing cold water through an annulus surrounding the test section. Tests are performed at a fixed saturation temperature of $50\;{\pm}\;0.2\;^{\circ}C$ with mass fluxes of 50, 100, $150\;kg/m^2s$ and heat flux of $7.3{\sim}7.7\;kW/m^2$. Heat transfer data are obtained in the vapor quality range of $10{\sim}90%$. Test results show that the flow condensation HTCs of R245fa are overall 7.9% higher than those of R123 at all mass fluxes. The pressure drop of R245fa is smaller than that of R123 at the same heat flux. In conclusion, R245fa is a good candidate to replace ozone depleting R123 currently used in chillers from the view point heat transfer and environmental properties.

본 논문에서는 써모싸이폰식 히트파이프의 열수송한계와 작동유체의 주입량이 파이프의 직경, 가열량 및 증발부와 응축부의 길이비 등에 따라 변화하므로 이러한 인자에 따른 적정 작동유체의 주입량과 가열량의 한계에 대해 고찰하였다. 특히 각종 전자부품의 냉각에 사용되는 히트파이프가 써모사이폰식이므로 사용작동유체에 대해 가열량에 따라 파이프의 직경예측이 가능토록 열수송한계특성에 대해 검토하고, 싸이리스터용은 증발부와 응축부의 길이비 변동이 심하므로 작동유체의 주입량이 중요한 성능인자로 작용하므로 길이비에 따른 작동유체의 주입량범위에 대해 기술하였다. 그리고 최적의 작동유체범위와 히트파이프의 증발열전달계수 및 응축열전달계수에 대한 실험으로부터 성능자료를 도출하여 이론해석과 비교검토하였다.

An experimental study has been performed on the heat transfer characteristics of condensation by the injecting steam flow in the tube. The comparison between results of experimental data and available data concerning equivalent Reynolds number has studied. As the result, the followings were obtained. 1. The shear stress of the radial direction in the tube when the injecting steam flow was condensed can be written as root($\tau$sub(0)/$\tau$sub(0v))=1+1.46X sub(tt) super(0.20). 2. The effect of the heat transfer in the injecting steam flow was less than the value of equivalent Reynolds number. The reason are the nonuniform fluid film of the axial and radial direction in the tube. 3. The value of N sub(u) by the heat transfer of condensation can be written as N sub(u)=1.08$\times$[{$\rho$ sub(l) d/$\mu$ sub(l)}/{$\delta$+(2.5/P sub(rl)) ln(y sub(i)/$\delta$)}]$\times${$\tau$ sub(0)/ $\rho$ sub(l)} super(1/2).

Condensation heat transfer on a single horizontal tube with electric fields (Electro-Hydro-Dynamics, (EHD)) has been studied experimentally. Results are presented for EHD enhanced condensation of R-113 on a single horizontal tube using several electrode geometries. Especially, its attention was focused on the effects of electrode geometry, electric field strength and the gap of the electrode. In this study, single wire, helical, ring and mesh electrode were used. The range of the imposed voltage was 0~20 kV. As the voltage was increased the surface of liquid became an unstable wave, stream jet, liquid column and then liquid extraction in sequence. Among the various kinds of electrodes, the single wire electrode is suitable for practical application.

Flow condensation heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of R22, R134a, R407C, and R410A were measured on horizontal plain and microfin tubes. The experimental apparatus was composed of three main parts; a refrigerant loop, a water loop and a water/glycol loop. The test section in the refrigerant loop was made of both a plain and a microfin copper tube of 6.0∼6.16 mm inside diameter and 1.0 m length. Refrigerants were cooled by passing cold water through an annulus surrounding the test section. Tests were performed at a fixed refrigerant saturation temperature of 4$0^{\circ}C$ with mass fluxes of 100, 200, and 300 kg/m2s. Test results showed that at similar mass flux the flow condensation HTCs of R134a were similar to those of R22 for both plain and microfin tubes. On the other hand, HTCs of R407C were lower than those of R22 by 4∼16% and 16∼42% for plain and microfin tubes respectively. And HTCs of R410A were similar to those of R22 for a plain tube but lower than those of R22 by 3∼9% for a microfin tube. Heat transfer enhancement factors of a microfin tube were 1.3∼1.9.

In this study, external condensation heat transfer coefficients(HTCs) of R134a and R1234yf are measured on a plain, low fin, and Turbo-C tubes at the saturated vapor temperature of $39^{\circ}C$ with the wall subcooling of $3{\sim}8^{\circ}C$. R1234yf is a new alternative refrigerant of low greenhouse warming potential for replacing R134a which is one of the greenhouse gases controlled by Kyoto protocol and is used extensively in mobile air-conditioners. Test results show that the external condensation HTCs of R1234yf are very similar to those of R134a for all three surfaces tested. For the application of condensation heat transfer correlations to the design of condensers charged with R1234yf, thorough property measurements are needed for R1234yf in the near future.

In this study, external condensation heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) were measured on a horizontal smooth tube at the saturated vapor temperature of $30^{\circ}C,\;39{\circ}C,\;and\;50^{\circ}C$ for R22, R410A, R407C, and R134a with the wall subcooling of $3\~8^{\circ}C$. The HTCs of all refrigerants are the highest at $30^{\circ}C,\;39{\circ}C,\;and\;50^{\circ}C$ in order. This trend is due to its excellent thermodynamic properties of the liquid phase. The measured data of HTCs were compared with the calculated ones by Nusselt's equation for a smooth tube. Measured HTCs of R22, R134a, R410A are $4.2\~7.5\%$ higher than prediction respectively while those of R407C are $15.6\~28.9\%$ lower than the prediction.

A study has been conducted to investigate the effect of the heat transfer surface position in the range of dropwise condensation, filmwise condensation, and glacial condensation. For dropwise condensation promoter, the heat transfer surface was evaporated by gold. As a result, heat transfer rate is almost same where the position of heat transfer surface is between 45 and 135 degree. It is found that heat transfer rate was reduced as subcooled degree was increased. And it is also found that if the subcooled degree becomes lower, the position of heat transfer surface is more effective. Adversely, if the subcooled degree becomes higher, the effectiveness of surface position is getting relatively lower. Regardless of the position, the transition temperatures from dropwise condensation to filmwise condensation is in the vicinity of 80K.

직접접촉 얼교환 기술은 냉각탑, 접촉급수 가열기 및 공기분리기 등과 같은 장치에 예전부터 이용되어 왔는데, 그 주요한 적용이유는 가열유체와 수열유체의 사이에 일어나는 전열이 일반 열교환기와는 달리 고체벽(금속 열전달표면)을 통과하지 않고 열교환을 함으로써, 종래의 열교 환기에 비하여 상대적으로 설비의 간단화, 부식 및 스케일 부착문제가 경감됨에 따른 적은 유 지보수비 및 높은 열전달률을 얻을수 있는 이점이 있으며, 저 온도차에서의 효율적인 사용이 가능하기 때문이다. 이 글에서는 직접접촉응축 현상의 장점을 이용하는 직접접촉식 교환기의 구조와 형태, 그리고 그 응용분야에 대해서 알아보고자 한다.
