  • The characteristics of heat transfer and pressure drop through tubes has been investigated experimentally for a compound heat transfer enhancement. The test tubes were spirally indented tubes with wire coil inserts which had a various combinations of pitch and helix angles. Pure water was used as working fluids for the experiments, Heat transfer coefficients and friction factors of the test tubes were evaluated from the values of measured temperatures, flow rates and pressure drops. An performance evaluation was performed to find an optimal combination of spirally indented tubes with wire coil inserts. When the helix angle of wire coil insert are $71^{\circ}-72^{\circ}$, the best heat transfer enhancement was shown. The friction factor was 9 - 13 times higher than those in smooth tubes, and the heat transfer was enhanced a maximum of 500%.

  • Experiments on the single phase cooling heat transfer and pressure drop with microfin tubes were performed using water as a test fluid. Experimental data were obtained in the range of Reynolds number 3000 ~40000 and Prandtl number 4-6. The data of microfin tubes presented the characteristics of rough surface tube in pressure drop and heat transfer Experimental data were compared with the heat transfer and friction factor correlations of smooth tubes. Heat transfer enhancements of microfin tubes were lower than pressure drop penalty factors. The helix angle is more significant parameter in both of the pressure drop and heat transfer than the relative roughness. The correlations of Nusselt number and friction factor were suggested for the tested microfin tubes. Maximum deviations between correlations and experimental data were within $\pm15$% for Nusselt number and $\pm10$% for friction factor.

  • Large diameter tubes have been used until comparatively lately. However, small diameter tubes are largely used because of their high efficiency in heat transfer and low cost, recently. This study focuses on the experimental research of the heat transfer coefficients during evaporation process of R-22 and R-134a in small diameter tubes. The evaporation heat transfer coefficients were measured in smooth horizontal copper tubes with ID 1.77, 3.36 and 5.35 mm. The evaporation heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes (ID <7 mm) were observed to be strongly affected by the size of tube diameters and to differ from those of general predictions in the large diameter tubes. The heat transfer coefficients of ID 1.77 mm copper tube were higher by 20 and 30 % than those of ID 3.36 mm, ID 5.35 mm copper tubes respectively. Also, it was found that it was very difficult to apply some well-known previous predictions (Shah's, Jung's. Kandlikar's and Oh-Katsuda's correlation) to small diameter tubes. Based on the data, the new correlation is proposed to predict the evaporation heat transfer coefficients of R-22 and R-134a in small diameter tubes.

  • Wake-induced aerodynamics of yawed circular cylinders with smooth and grooved surfaces in a tandem arrangement was studied. This pair of cylinders represent sections of stay-cables with smooth surfaces and high-voltage power conductors with grooved surfaces that are vulnerable to flow-induced structural failure. The study provides some insight for a better understanding of wake-induced loads and galloping problem of bundled cables. All experiments in this study were conducted using a pair of stationary section models of circular cylinders in a wind tunnel subjected to uniform and smooth flow. The aerodynamic force coefficients and vortex-shedding frequency of the downstream model were extracted from the surface pressure distribution. For measurement, polished aluminum tubes were used as smooth cables; and hollow tubes with a helically grooved surface were used as power conductors. The aerodynamic properties of the downstream model were captured at wind speeds of about 6-23 m/s (Reynolds number of 5×104 to 2.67×105 for smooth cable and 2×104 to 1.01×105 for grooved cable) and yaw angles ranging from 0° to 45° while the upstream model was fixed at the various spacing between the two model cylinders. The results showed that the Strouhal number of yawed cable is less than the non-yawed case at a given Reynolds number, and its value is smaller than the Strouhal number of a single cable. Additionally, compared to the single smooth cable, it was observed that there was a reduction of drag coefficient of the downstream model, but no change in a drag coefficient of the downstream grooved case in the range of Reynolds number in this study.

  • Evaporating heat transfer coefficients of R-22 and R-134a were measured in smooth horizontal copper tubes with inner diameters of 1.77, 3.36 and 5.35mm, respectively. The experiments were conducted in a closed loop, which was driven by a magnetic gear pump. Experiments were performed for the following range of variables: mass velocity (200 to 400 kg/$m^2$.s), saturation temperature($0^{circ}C,; 5^{\circ}C$) and quality(0 to 1.0). Main results obtained are as follows: evaporating heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes (ID<7mm) were observed to be strongly affected by various diameters and to differ from those in the large diameter tubers. The heat transfer coefficients of the small diameter tubes were higher than those of the large diameter tubs. And it was very difficult to apply some well-known previous predictions (Shah`s, Gungor-Winterton`s and Kandlikar`s correlation) to small diameter tubes.

  • Condensing heat transfer coefficients of R-22 and R-134a were measured in smooth, horizontal copper tubes with inner diameters of 1.77mm, 3.36mm, and 5.35mm, respectively. The experiments were conducted in the closed loop, which was driven by a magnetic gear pump. Data are presented for the following range of variables : mass velocity from 200 to 500kg/$m^2$.s and quality from 0 to 1.0. The heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes (ID < 7mm) were observed to be strongly affected by various diameters and the heat transfer characteristics in the small diameter tubes differed from those in the large diameter tubes. Heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes are higher than those in the large diameter tubes at the same experimental condition. It was found that some well-known previous correlations(Shahs correlation and Cavallini-Zecchins correlation) were not suitable for small diameter tubes.

  • The Condensation heat transfer coefficients of R-22 and R-l34a were measured in smooth horizontal copper tubes with inner diameters of 1.77. 3.36 and 5.35 mm. respectively. The experiments were conducted in a closed loop. which was driven by a magnetic gear pump. They were Performed for the following ranges of variables: mass flux (200 to $500\;kg/\textrm{m}^2{\cdot}s$) saturation temperature $30^{\circ}C$ and quality (0 to 1.0). The main results obtained are as follows Condensation heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes (ID < 7 mm) were observed to be strongly affected by inner diameter change and to differ from those in the large diameter tubes. The heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes were 20 ~ 40 % higher than those in the large diameter tubes as the inner diameter of the tube was reduced. Also. it was very difficult to apply some well-known previous predictions (Cavallini-Zecchin's. Haraguchi's and Dobson's correlation) to small diameter tubes. Based on an analogy between heat and mass transfer the new correlation is Proposed to predict the experimental data more accurately.

  • Experiments on the condensation heat transfer characteristics inside a smooth and a microfin tube with R410A/R22 are performed in this study. The test tubes 7/9.52 mm in outside diameters and 3m in length are used. Varying the mass flux of the refrigerant and the condensation temperatures, the average heat transfer coefficients and pressure drop are investigated. Most flows in this study are in the annular and/or wavy flow regime. It is shown that the heat transfer is enhanced and the pressure drops are larger in the microfin tube than the smooth tube. From the heat transfer enhancement coefficients and the pressure drops, it is found that the high heat transfer enhancement factors are obtained in the range of small mass flux while the penalty factors are almost equal. Experiments results show that average heat transfer coefficients of R410A is larger than that of R22 and pressure drop of R410A is less than R22.

  • Falling film heat transfer analyses with aqueous lithium bromide solution were performed to investigate the transfer characteristics of the copper tubes. Finned (knurled) tube and a smooth tube were selected as test specimens. Averaged generation fluxes of water and the heat flux were obtained. As the film flow rate of the solution increased, the generation fluxes of water decreased for both tubes due to the fact that the heat transfer resistance increased with the film thickness. The effect of the enlarged surface area at the knurled tube was supposed to be dominant at a small flow rate. The generation fluxes of water increased with the increasing degree of tube wall superheat. Nucleate boiling is supposed to occur at a wall superheat of 20K for a smooth tube, and at 10K for a knurled tube. The increased performance of the knurled tube was supposed to mainly come from the effect of the increased heating surface area.
