A study has been conducted experimentally on heat transfer characteristics of louvered fin heat exchangers with various fin spacings in air. The experimental results are as follows; 1. Mean heat transfer coefficient is increased with increasing air velocity and the optimum fin spacing shows at S=5mm. 2. Pressure drop is increased with increasing air velocity and its maximum value shows at S=3.5mm and its minimum value shows at S=6mm. 3. $\bar{h}/{\Delta}P$ is decreased with increasing air velocity and its maximum value shows at S=5mm and its minimum value shows at S=3.5mm.

Development of a more satisfactory program of computing the performance on a multi-tube evaporator with continuous plate fins is attempted in this study. The fluid flow involving a change of phase make the flow properties and fluid friction factor of refrigerants, the heat transfer coefficients of refrigerant and air sides vary significantly. Taking such variations into account, a useful program is developed to predict the steady state performance of a multi-tube evaporator. The program was applied to an evaporator which has outside diameter of 10.05mm, inside diameter of 9.35mm, length of 5.4m and two rows arraied staggered. Then the variations of refrigerant quality, temperature, pressure, velocity, enthalpy, specific volume and air temperature, tube temperature were discussed. Satisfactory results were presented that the degree of superheat at the outlet side was $4.4^{\circ}C$ and the air temperature drop between the inlet and outlet of the air conditioner was $10^{\circ}C$.

An experimental investigation was conducted to study two-phase flow distribution in a T-type distributor of slit fin-and-tube heat exchanger using R22. A comparison was made between the predictions by previously proposed tube-by-tube method and experimental data for the heat transfer rate of evaporator. Experiments were carried out under the conditions of saturation temperature of 5$^{\circ}C$ and mass flow rate varying from 0.6 to 1.2kg/min. The inlet air has dry bulb temperature of 27$^{\circ}C$, relative humidity of 50% and air velocity varying from 0.63 to 1.71㎧. Experiment show that air velocity increased by 85.2% is need for T-type distributor with four outlet branches than that of two outlet branches under the superheat of 5$^{\circ}C$, which resulted in air-side pressure drop increase of 130% for T-type distributor with four outlet branches as compared to two outlet branches.

본 판형 핀-관형 응축기는 기존의 냉장고에 적용돼오던 원형 핀 콘덴서보다 약 30 % 정도 가벼운 무게를 갖는다. 가벼운 무게는 곧 재료비 줄임을 의미하기 때문에 동일한 성능만 구현된다면, 관련 산업발전에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있다. 이러한 판형-핀 열교환기가 적용된 가정용 냉장고 응축기의 실용화 가능성을 조사하기 위해 실험적인 연구가 수행된다. 실험평가에는 원래 적용돼오던 원형 핀-관 열교환기를 포함하여 총 네 가지 유형의 열교환기가 사용되며, 실제 가정용 냉장고와 비슷한 운전 상태를 제공하는 정교한 냉매공급 장치가 이용되고, 각 실험 시료에 대해 열전달율과 공기측 압력손실 등이 정밀하게 측정된다. 실험결과, 판형 핀-관 열교환기의 열전달 성능은 기존의 원형 핀-관 열교환기보다 13% 이상 작은 것으로 나타났으나, 공기측 유로압력손실이 작고 단위질량당 열전달률이 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 공기유속 증가와 유로 변경과 같은 최적화에 의한 동일 성능 구현의 가능성을 보여주는 것으로 나타났다.

Typically, condensate forms as droplets on the fin surfaces and may bridge the space between the fin surfaces. This is due to the dry characteristics inherent to the fin surface. The droplets increase the air-side pressure drop. In the case of high air velocities, these droplets may be blown off the fins and entrained in the air stream. To minimize the formation of condensate droplet, the wet ability of the fins must be improved. The carry-over velocity is affected by fin surface characteristics. To avoid carry-over in the air conditioner having the highest air velocity of 1.5 m/sec, the dynamic contact angle (DCA) should be at least lowly under $60^{\circ}$.

This study experimentally investigates an air-side performance of oval tube heat exchanger against round tube heat exchanger using scaled-up model experiment for home air conditioners. A plain fin and round tube heat exchanger with 21 FPI(fins per inch) was used as a reference heat exchanger, and these were applied equally to 4 oval tube heat exchangers. Oval tube samples were designed with the same perimeter as 7.5mm diameter round tube, and their aspect ratios were 1:2, 1:3, respectively. In this study, the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of oval tube heat exchangers against round tube heat exchanger were also compared to one another, and an optimal samples for home air conditioners was recommended. And, general performance characteristics for an optimum oval tube samples chosen in this work was compared with round tube heat exchanger.

평판형 태양열 집열기의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 다양한 형태의 형상과 크기의 인공 거칠기가 가장 일반적이고 효과적으로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 형상의 립을 삽입한 사각 채널에서의 열전달 특성 및 압력강하에 대하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 사각 채널의 윗 평판에 일정한 열유속을 가하였다. 삽입된 립의 형상은 rib $90^{\circ}$, groove $90^{\circ}$, groove $60^{\circ}$, baffle $90^{\circ}$, baffle $60^{\circ}$, wave $90^{\circ}$, wave $60^{\circ}$ 모델이다. 작동유체는 공기이며 Reynolds 수는 3200~17800의 범위이다. 다양한 형태의 립 형상에 따른 시스템의 성능을 예측하기 위하여 Nusselt 수와 마찰인자를 고찰하였다. 모든 형태의 립에서 속도가 증가할수록 Nusselt 수와 압력강하는 증가하였다. 열전달 향상과 압력강하가 가장 높은 모델은 baffle $90^{\circ}$ 모델이지만, 열전달 특성과 압력강하를 고려하여 나타낸 성능계수에서는 groove $60^{\circ}$ 모델이 가장 크게 나왔다. 따라서 평판형 태양열 집열기에서는 열전달 향상과 압력강하를 항상 동시에 고려한 설계가 필요하다.

A ceramic monolith heat exchanger is studied to find the performance of heat transfer and pressure drop by numerical computation and $\xi$-NTU method. The numerical computation was performed throughout the domain including fluid region in exhaust gas-side rectangular ducts, ceramic core and fluid region in air-side rectangular duct with the air and exhaust in cross flow direction. In addition, the heat exchanger was also analyzed to estimate the performance by conventional $\xi$-NTU method with several Nusselt number correlations for flow in rectangular duct from literature. By comparisons of both performances by the numerical computation and the $\xi$-NTU method, the effectiveness by $\xi$-NTU method was closest to the result by numerical computation within a relative error of 2.14% when Stephan's Nusselt number correlation was adopted to the $\xi$-NTU method among the several correlations.

The present experimental study investigates the impact of porous fins on the pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics in plate-fin heat exchangers. Systematic experiments have been carried out in a simplified model of a plate-porous fin heat exchanger at a controlled test environment. Comparison of performance between the porous fins and the conventional louvered fins has been made. The experimental results indicate that friction and heat transfer rate are significantly affected by permeability as well as porosity of the porous fin. The porous fins used in the present study show a similar air-side performance to the louvered fin. The correlations of friction and modified j-factor are also given for the design of the plate-porous fin heat exchanger.

For the study of performance evaluation on different shape heat exchangers that have the same energy consumption in a refrigerator, we make performance evaluation coefficient (PEC) which can distinguish performance of different shape heat exchangers. The results were reported in order to compare with for the dry frosting and wet frosting test as various definition of PECs. Results showed that PEC of dry frosting test is higher than that of wet frosting test because attached water droplet increases pressure drop of air-side then this decreases performance of heat exchanger.
