In this study, external condensation heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) are measured on a low fin tube and Turbo-C tubes 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 subcooled at $3{\~}8^{\circ}C$. The HTCs of all refrigerants decreased as increasing the saturation temperature from $30^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$. This trend is due to better thermodynamic properties of the liquid phase at low temperature Beatty and Katz's prediction yielded a $20.0\%$ deviation for the low fin tube data. The heat transfer enhancement factors for the 26 fpi low fin tube and Turbo-C tubes are 4.0${\~}$5.5 and 3.0${\~}$8.1 respectively for the refrigerants tested. Finally the performance of Turbo-C tube is better than that of the low fin tube.

In this study, evaporation heat transfer tests were conducted in flat aluminum multi-channel tubes using R-22. Two internal geometries were tested ; one with smooth inner surface and the other with micro-fins. Data are presented for the following range of variables ; vapor quality $(0.1{\sim}0.9)$, mass flux$(100{\sim}600kg/m^2s)$ and heat flux$(5{\sim}15kW/m^2)$. The micro-tin tube showed higher heat transfer coefficients compared with those of the smooth tube. Results showed that, for the smooth tube, the effects of mass flux, quality and heat flux were not prominent, and existing correlations overpredicted the data. For the micro-fin tube at low quality, the heat transfer coefficient increased as heat flux increased. However, the trend was reversed at high quality Kandlikar's correlation predicted the low mass flux data, and Shah's correlation predicted the high mass flux data. The heat transfer coefficient of the micro fin tube was approximately two times larger than that of the plain tube. New correlation was developed based on present data.

Pipes, tubes. and tubular sections with external transverse high fins have been used extensively for heating cooling, and degumidifying air and other gases. This work was performed to investigate an air side heat transfer charactieristics of minichannel with tension wound transverse fin. This estimate was confirmed conversion heat capacity the air side surface area enlargement and heat transfer charactieristics performed available inlet tube side hot water mass flux or outlet tube side air frontal air velocity. The most suitable tension wound transverse finned minichannel was measured extremely low in air side pressure drop and fin effectiveness $3.3\~4.4$. The pressure drop $0.9\~2.8Pa$ was ranged frontal air velocity $0.5\~1.2m/s$. It is also appeared that heat transfer in air side could be better conversion heat area which has been increased $330\%$ of heat capacity compared with the bare tube.

In this work, pool boiling heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of five hydrocarbon refrigerants of propylene, propane, isobutane, butane and dimethylether (DME) were measured at the liquid temperature of $7^{\circ}C$ on a 26 fpi low fin tube, Turbo-B, and Thermoexcel-E tubes. All data were taken from 80 to $10kW/m^2$ in the decreasing order of heat flux. The data of hydrocarbon refrigerants showed a typical trend that nucleate boiling HTCs obtained on enhanced tubes also increase with the vapor pressure. Fluids with lower reduced pressure such as DME, isobutane, and butane took more advantage of the heat transfer enhancement mechanism of enhanced tubes than those enhancement ratios of $2.3\sim9.4$ among the tubes tested due to its sub-channels and re-entrant cavities.

This study is numerical analysis on the increasing temperature characteristics of vaporizer fin for liquefied natural gas with super low temperature. Existing LNG vaporizers use the direct contact heat transfer mode where the extreme super low temperature LNG of $-162^{\circ}C$ flows inside of the tubes and about $20^{\circ}C$air flows on outside of the fin. Recently, the vaporizers with great enhanced performance compared to conventional type have been developed to fulfill these requirements. The vaporizing characteristic of LNG vaporizer with air as heat source has a fixed iced. These characteristic cause a low efficiency in vaporizer, total plant cost and installing space can be increased. The vaporizing characteristics of LNG via heat exchanger with air are analytically studied for an air heating type vaporizer. This study is intended to supply the design data for the domestic fabrication of the thickness and angle vaporizer fin. Governing conservation equations for mass, momentum and energy are solved by STAR-CD based on an finite volume method and SIMPLE algorithm. Calculation parameter is fin thickness, setup angle and LNG temperature. If the vaporization performance of the early stage and late stage of operating is considered, the case of ${\phi}=90^{\circ}$ was very suitable. In this paper was estimated that the heat transfer was most promoted in case of THF=2mm.

In this study, external condensation heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of two non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures of HFC32/HFC152a at various compositions were measured on both 26 fpi low-fin and Turbo-C enhanced tubes, of 19.0 mm outside diameter. All data were taken at the vapor temperature of $39^{\circ}C$, with a wall subcooling of 3~8 K. Test results showed that the HTCs of the tested mixtures on the enhanced tubes were much lower than the ideal values calculated by mass fraction weighting of the pure component HTCs. Also, the reduction of HTCs due to the diffusion vapor film was much larger than that of a plain tube. Unlike HTCs of pure fluids, HTCs of the mixtures measured on enhanced tubes increased, as the wall subcooling increased, which was due to the sudden break-up of the vapor diffusion film with an increase in wall subcooling. Finally, the heat transfer enhancement ratios for mixtures were found to be much lower, than those of pure fluids.

Pool boiling heat transfer characteristics of R-134a were investigated in titanium plain and low finned tubes. The diameter of test tube was 15.88 mm and the fin density was 33 fpi. Tests were conducted at saturation temperatures of $20^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$. Heat fluxes varied from 5000 W/$m^2$ to 50,000 W/$m^2$ based on surface area of the plain tube. The pool boiling heat transfer coefficients of the titanium horizontal plain tube are lower than those of the copper plain tube by $8.2\%$. The boiling heat transfer coefficients of the low finned tube are averagely higher than those of the plain tubes by $34\%$. The average deviation of the Slipcevic correlation from the present data for the low finned tube is $20\%$.

본 연구에서는 핀 핏치와 핀 높이가 다른 7종류의 낮은 핀관에 대하여 LiBr 농도 0%.~50%, 열유속 $20kW/m^2{\sim}40kW/m^2$, 포화압력 7.38kPa~101.3kPa에서 풀 비등 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 범위에서 최적 낮은 핀관 형상은 핀 핏치 26fpi, 핀 높이 1.8mm로 나타났다. 핀 핏치가 너무 넓으면 전열 면적이 감소하고 핀 핏치가 너무 좁으면 기포의 성장 및 이탈이 원활하지 못하게 되어 최적 핀 핏치가 존재한다. 포화압력이 낮아질수록, LiBr 농도가 증가할수록 열전달계수는 감소하였다. 이는 포화압력이 낮아질수록 기포의 이탈직경은 증가하고 이탈 빈도는 감소하기 때문이다. 또한 LiBr 농도가 증가하면 포화온도는 증가하고 물질확산율은 감소하는데 이에 따라 기포의 성장속도가 감소하고 따라서 열전달계수가 감소하게 된다. 낮은 핀관의 열전달계수는 모든 포화압력과 농도에서 평활관의 열전달계수보다 크게 나타났다. 본 실험자료를 기반으로 상관식을 제시하였다.

The objectives of this paper are to study the characteristics of heat transfer for enhanced tubes (19.05 mm) used in the condenser with high saturation temperatures and to provide a guideline for optimum design of a condenser using HFC134a. Three different enhanced tubes are tested at a high saturation temperature of $59.8^{\circ}C$ (16 bar); a low-fin and three turbo-C tubes.. The refrigerant, HFC134a is condensed on the outside of the tube while the cooling water flows inside the tube. The film Reynolds number varies from 130 to 330. The wall subcooling temperature ranges from $2.7^{\circ}C$ to $9.7^{\circ}C$. This study provides experimental heat transfer coefficients for condensation on the enhanced tubes. It is found that the turbo-C(2) tube provides the highest heat transfer coefficient.

All-glass evacuated tube solar collectors consist of glass evacuated tubes and absorber tubes. Solar thermal energy from the sun is transferred to the working fluid through the glass evacuated tube and the absorber tube. Several collectors which have different absorber tubes are tested to find the effects of the absorber tube shapes and the operating conditions such as the incident heat flux and the flow rate. As the results, the efficiency of the collector which has a finned tube U tube is about $2{\sim}5%$ higher than that of the others in all cases on an average. And the collector has a finned U tube has the highest efficiency at the high flow rate and the low incident heat flux. In this condition, the outlet mean temperature is low and the heat loss becomes small. Also, it is known that the fin effect is greater than the shade effect.
