To enhancement heat transfer performance, the metallic foam as heat exchanger was studied rapidly. This was attributed to its high surface area to volume ratio as well as intensive flow mixing by tortuous flow passages. So the experimental study about the heat transfer characteristic of metallic foam is presented in this paper. The material in this experiment was used as FeCrAl which has density of 10 ppi, 20 ppi and 30 ppi respectively. And the results show the heat transfer is rise with permeability Reynolds number increase and the pressure drop metallic foam was increased with the ppi increase.

Infra-red thermography was conducted to understand a heat transfer characteristic on a surface protruded to a supersonic flowfield. Surface temperature distribution was obtained under the constant heat flux condition with a infra-red camera and the convective heat transfer coefficient distribution was calculated. Finally, two dimensional distribution of heat transfer coefficient on a surface around a cylinder body was derived.

In this study, condensation heat transfer experiments were conducted with plate and shell heat exchangers(P&SHE) using R-22. An experimental refrigerant loop has been established to measure the condensation heat transfer coefficient of R-22 in a vertical P&SHE. Two vertical counter flow channels were formed in the P&SHE by three plates of geometry with a corrugated trapezoid shape of a chevron angle of 45°. Downflow of the condensing R-22 in one channel releases heat to the cold upflow of water in the other channel. The effect of the refrigerant mass flux, average heat flux, system pressure and vapor quality of R-22 on the measured data were explored in detail. The results indicate that at a higher vapor quality the condensation heat transfer coefficients are significantly higher. A rise in the refrigerant mass flux causes an increase in the h(sub)r. Also, a rise in the average heat flux causes an increase in the h(sub)r. Finally, at a higher system pressure the h(sub)r is found to be slightly lower. Correlation is also provided for the measured heat transfer coefficients in terms of the Nusselt number.

A pin fin is optimized based on the increasing rate of heat loss by using a two-dimensional analytic method. The optimum heat loss, corresponding optimum thermal resistance and fin length are presented as a function of the fin base thickness, convection characteristic numbers ratio, fin outer radius and ambient convection characteristic number. One of the results shows that both the optimum heat loss and fin length decrease linearly whereas the optimum thermal resistance increases very slightly with increase of the fin base thickness.

In this study, heat transfer and Pressure drop characteristics for R-718 in the plate and shell heat exchanger (P&SHE) investigated experimentally. The plates are circular and welded into a stack which fits into a cylindrical shell in P&SHE. Although apparently very different from rectangular the compact brazed plate heat exchanger (CBE), the underlying flow passage structure through the P&SHE is the same as in the CBE. The R-718 between plate side and shell side was performed a counterflow heat exchange. Heat transfer characteristic of R-718 were measured for turbulent flow in P&SHE by using wilson plot technique. Heat transfer experiment Ivas performed in the $200{\leq}Re{\leq}500$ regime and Pressure drop experiment was performed in the $150{\leq}Re{\leq}1600$ regime. The purpose of this study is to investigate heat transfer and friction factor correlations for R-718 in P&SHE and to offer fundamental data for experiment

The laminar impinging jet thermal fields were investigated with or without magnetic fields. The transient phenomenon from steady to unsteady flow was founded at specific Reynolds number ranges. In unsteady flow region, the magnetic fields make flow stable. So the characteristics of heat transfer at impingement wall are changed

In case of heat exchangers operating under frosting condition, the thermal resistance and the air-side pressure loss increase with a growth of frost layer. In this paper, a transient characteristic prediction model of the heat transfer for a multi-inverter heat pump with frosting on its surface was presented by taking into account the change of the fin efficiency due to the growth of the frost layer. This dynamic simulation program was developed for a basic air conditioning system composed of an evaporator, a condenser, a compressor, a linear electronic expansion valve, and a bypass circuit. The theoretical model was derived from measured heat transfer and mass transfer coefficients. We also considered that the heat transfer performance was only affected by the decrease of wind flow area. The calculated results were compared with the experimental results for frosting conditions.

The objectives of this paper are to obtain an empirical equations regarding the correlations between heat transfer and pressure drop of oval fin-tube heat exchanger having large diameter using wilson plot method. It was difficult to find any recommendable heat transfer and friction factor correlation available for our large diameter experimental cases. Overall heat transfer coefficients are composed of the heat transfer coefficients both inside and outside tubes. The resulting empirical correlations for the Nui and f-factor are given as $Nu_i=0.0146Re^{0.809}Pr^{0.3}$ and $f=4.366Re^{-0.64}$, respectively. The empirical correlations of the Nui and f-factors were developed for the large diameter oval finned-tube heat exchanger as a function of the Reynolds number. As the EG(Ethylene glycol) and air flow rate increases, the heat transfer rate and pressure drop is increased largely.

An experimental study of the absorption process of water vapor into lithium bromide solution was performed. For the purpose of development of high performance absorption chiller-heater utilizing Lithium Bromide solution as working fluid, the absorber is the most effective to improve the performance of an absorber because it requires the largest heat transfer area in an absorption chiller-heater system. This paper introduces bare tube and inner ribbed notched fin tube for the absorber of absorption chiller-heaters. Inner ribbed notched fin tube has about 10∼20% higher heat and mass transfer performance than bare tube conventionally used in absorbers and the it is expected to perform high heat and mass transfer. This paper will provide important information on the selection of absorber tubes in commercial absorption chill-heaters.

In the present study, heat transfer characteristics of oil flow over offset strip fins are predicted by the numerical methods. Oil flow in the plate-fin passage is idealized by 2 dimensions. Inlet velocity, Prandtl number and fin pitch ratio are chosen as parameters which affect the heat transfer of offset strip fins. The effect of parameters on pressure drops and convective heat transfer coefficients are described. Characteristic length is derived in case of 2 dimensional flow situation. Correlations for friction factor and convective heat transfer coefficient are derived.
