Condenser tube has been used as a component of heat exchanger in automobile and air conditioning apparatus. In this paper, porthole die extrusion that is advantageous to form long hollow section tube is analyzed by direct extrusion of condenser tube with 12 holes. A study on extrusion process is performed through the 3D FE simulation at non-steady state and extrusion experiments. Especially, weldability, extrusion load and die defects were estimated try FE-simulation. This study present the redesigned die of direct extrusion in consideration of the results obtained from FE-analysis.

In the present study, we used a loop thermosyphon heat exchanger consisting of condensers with internal fins and external plate fins which are 480 mm wide, 68 mm long, and 1,000 mm high. The heat transfer pipes in the heat exchanger were 15 mm in diameter and 1,000 mm in length, and 98 heat transfer pipes were installed in the heat exchanger. According to the experimental results, as the spaces between the internal discontinuous pins decreased, the frequency of pressure drops increased and changes in temperature at the outlet of the condenser were shown to be a little smaller. Therefore, we can see that as the spaces between internal discontinuous pins decreased, the heat transfer performance increased. For the loop heat pipe heat exchanger consisting of a condenser with internal and plate fins, as the temperature of the air flowing into the condenser increased, the condensation heat transfer rate also increased, and as the condenser refrigerant inflow temperature increased, the condensation heat transfer rate increased as well.

A two-phase closed thermosyphon is applied to an ice storage system. The thermosyphon is used to freeze the water in a storage tank. The experiment has been performed to investigate the effects of the important parameters such as the quantity of the fluid filled with, the ratio of the length of the evaporator to the condenser, and the temperature and the mass flow rate of the brine. It is found that the higher thermal performance of the thermosyphon is obtained as the ratio of the length of the evaporator section to that of the condenser section is decreased and the temperature of the brine is lowered. The increase of the quantity of the working fluid also favors the performance of the system. The experimental data can be utilized for the basic design of ice storage systems with thermosyphons.

The heat-pipe is characterised by the highly effective thermal conductance. In order to change the thermal conductance, the heat-pipe is connected to a reservior having a space which is filled with non-condensable gas. In normal operation, the vapour of working fluid will tend to pump the non- condensable gas into the reservoir and the gas-vapour interface situates at some point along the condenser section. The thermal conductance is affected by non- condensable gas. It is concluded that the suitable position of interface can be used to control the temperature of condenser section. In this experiment, the evaporating part is connected to the lowest position of heat-pipe. The copper heat-pipe which is filled with Freon-113 or distilled water as working fluid utilized. As results of experimental study, thermal conductance can be increased by the operating pressure which is infulenced by non-condensable gas. A correlative equation between the thermal conductance and the mass of non- condensable gas is also obtained.

This study has been carried out to investigate thermosyphon's geyser boiling phenomenon used to solar collector. evaporator section of thermosyphon used to solar collector is very much longer than that of condenser section. From the results from this study, Geyser boiling's cycle depends on cooling water, tilt angle and the applied heat load at the evaporator. In this study, according to heat load, the geyser boiling frequency is lower, but the amplitude higher. For the high tilt angle of heat pipe, the frequency and amplitude are lower and higher in the evaporator region, respectively. Whereas, these phenomena is in contrast in the condenser region.

Numerical analysis and experimental study are performed to investigate the effect of heat load and operating temperature on the thermal performance of several variable conductance heat pipe (VCHP) with screen meshed wick. The heat pipe is designed in 200 screen meshes, 500 mm length and 12.7 mm outer diameter tube of copper, water (4.8 g) is used as working fluid and nitrogen as non-condensible gas (NCG). Heat pipe used in this study has evaporator, condenser and adiabatic section, respectively. Analysis values and experimental data of wall temperature distribution along axial length are presented for heat transport capacity, condenser cooling water temperature change, degrees of an inclination angle and operating temperature. These analysis and experiment give the follow findings: For the same charging mass of working fluid, the operating temperature of heat pipe becomes to be high with the increasing of charging mass of NCG. When the heat flux at the evaporator section increases, the vapor pressure in the pipe rises and consequently compresses the NCG to the condenser end part and increases the active length of the condenser. From previous process, it is found out we can control the operating temperature effectively and also the analysis and experimental results are relatively coincided well.

This paper presents the experimental study on the design conditions of pressure between booster ejector and air ejector in the steam-jet water-vapour refrigeration system. In this experiment, the motive steam of booster ejector and ai. ejector was dry saturated from 6 ata to 8 ata and flash chamber pressure were about $10\∼540mmHg$ higher than mixing section in booster ejector. The investigation of air on the pressure of booster ejector was performed by changing the condenser pressure. The experimental results show that flash chamber vacuum and condenser pressure of steam-jet refrigeration cycle increased in accordance with the increase of motive steam Pressure. Among the several nozzle sires tested, No.4 nozzle were best in term of evaporator vacuum under the constant operating conditions of air ejector in condenser.

This paper presents an experimental study on condensing heat transfer characteristics of R-22 alternative refrigerants, R-290 and R-410a on water sources heat pump. The apparatus mainly consisted of vapor pump condenser used to the test section evaporator manual expansion valve and measuring device. Test section constructed a smoothed tube of 10.07 mm ID and 12.7mm OD with a total length 6,300 mm was horizontal double pipe counterflow condenser. The refrigerants R-22, R-290 and R-410a were cooled by a coolant circulated in a surrounding annulus. Experimental range of mass velocities was changed from about 100 to 300 kg/($m^2$.s) and inlet quality 1.0 The credibility of experimental apparatus was 6 percent between heating capacity and cooling capacity added to compressor shaft power. The condensing heat transfer coefficients were increased with increasing mass velocity. However in case of R-290 they were more increasing than those of R-410a and R-22 Comparing the heat transfer coefficient between the experimental data and other's data the Cavallini-Zecchin's data was revealed to more similar prediction of author's experimental results on the average heat transfer coefficients.

The purpose of this research was to study the characteristics of heat transfer of snow removing facilities using heat pipe by experimental method. Heat pipes was constructed a flexible tube connected between evaporator and condenser ends for altitude adjustment of evaporator and it was constituted an internal diameter of 25.4mm, a length of 950mm for heating section and a length of 6000mm for condenser section with copper material for closed system. The results showed that the effect of heat transfer was increased when inclination angle and inlet temperature of heating water increased. Wall temperature response by inclined angle $4.5^{\circ}c-9^{\circ}c$ and working fluid amount 0.96 from to 1.3 times of evaporator volume were better than those of other working fluid and angle.
