Condensation heat transfer and pressure drop coefficients of R22/R142b in a water cooled helicaly coiled tube-in-tube heat exchanger.

Kebonte, Shiko A. 20 August 2012 (has links)
M.Ing. / Heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics during in-tube condensation of nonazeotropic mixtures of R22/R142b in a smooth helically coiled copper tube with an inside diameter of 8.11 mm are investigated. The experimental results are compared with prediction from correlation. The coefficient of performance of.the heat pump built and used for experiments has been studied. The mass flux of the refrigerant was varied during the course of the experiments. At similar mass flow rate of fluids, the average heat transfer coefficients for mixtures were lower than those for pure refrigerant R22 used as reference for comparison. Also, the heat transfer coefficients of all the refrigerants increased with increasing mass flux.

Análise teórica e experimental da ebulição nucleada de refrigerantes halogenados / Theoretical and experimental analysis of pool boiling of halocarbon refrigerants

Ribatski, Gherhardt 08 April 2002 (has links)
O estudo consistiu em uma análise teórica experimental, com o desenvolvimento de uma correlação, dos parâmetros que afetam a ebulição nucleada de refrigerantes halogenados em superfícies cilíndricas lisas. Uma ampla análise da literatura permitiu levantar os distintos tópicos envolvendo este tema destacando entre eles o presente estudo. A análise da literatura envolveu, ainda, um estudo detalhado dos fundamentos da ebulição e das correlações para a previsão do coeficiente de transferência de calor. Foi projetado e construído um aparato experimental no qual foram realizados ensaios envolvendo superfícies de aço inoxidável, cobre e latão, os refrigerantes R-11, R-123, R-12, R-22 e R-134a, fluxos específicos de calor entre 0,8 e 120 kW/m&sup2, pressões reduzidas de 0,008 a 0,26 e rugosidade aritmética média variando entre 0,02 e 3,3 &#956m. A análise destes resultados possibilitou a verificação de comportamentos físicos inéditos segundo a literatura consultada. Destaca-se a análise de efeitos da condução longitudinal e da resistência térmica de contato entre a superfície de transferência de calor e os termopares. Esta análise foi incorporada ao procedimento de determinação da temperatura superficial, e permitiu estabelecer a distribuição de temperaturas ao longo do perímetro da superfície. Finalmente, com base no banco de dados levantado, foi desenvolvida uma correlação para o coeficiente de transferência de calor em ebulição nucleada plenamente desenvolvida de refrigerantes halogenados. / The present research has been focused in a theoretical and experimental analysis of the parameters that affect the pool boiling of halocarbon refrigerants in smooth cylindrical surfaces with the development of a correlation. A wide survey of the literature allowed to list the distinct topics related to this subject and to highlight among them the theme of this study. The literature analysis still involved a detailed study of the pool boiling fundamentals and of the correlations for the pool boiling heat transfer coefficient. An experimental set up has been developed and constructed in which were raise data involving surfaces of stainless steel, copper and brass, the refrigerants R-11, R-123, R-12, R-22 and R-134a, specific heat flux range of 0.8 to 120 kW/m&sup2, reduced pressures from 0.008 to 0.26 and arithmetic mean roughness varying between 0.02 and 3.3 &#956m. The analysis of these results revealed, according to the consulted literature, unpublished physical behaviors. In this work the effects of the longitudinal conduction and of the thermal contact resistance between the heat transfer surface and the thermocouple were analyzed carefully. This analysis was incorporated to the superficial temperature determination procedure and allowed to establish the temperature distribution along the surface perimeter. Finally, using the data base raised in this research, a simple and accurate correlation for the fully developed pool boiling heat transfer coefficient for halocarbon refrigerants applications has been developed.

Efeito da geometria na ebulição nucleada de refrigerantes halogenados em tubos horizontais / Geometry effects in nucleate boiling of halocarbon refrigerants in horizontal tubes

Silva, Evandro Fockink da 16 September 2005 (has links)
O presente estudo envolve a análise teórico-experimental da transferência de calor através do mecanismo de ebulição em um único tubo e em banco com três tubos horizontais. A análise da literatura permitiu levantar os parâmetros que podem influenciar o coeficiente de transferência de calor na ebulição em banco de tubos e algumas correlações. O aparato experimental foi adaptado para realização de ensaios envolvendo refrigerantes halogenados, 3 tubos dispostos em fileiras paralelas e 3 distintos diâmetros. Nos experimentos foram utilizados os refrigerantes R-11, R-123 (baixa pressão) e R-134a (média pressão), tubos de latão aquecidos internamente com resistências elétricas, com fluxo de calor específico variando entre 1 e 40 kW/'M POT.2'. Através dos resultados foram observados alguns comportamentos inéditos na influência do acabamento superficial e em banco de tubos. Com base no banco de dados levantado, foi desenvolvida uma correlação para o coeficiente de transferência de calor em ebulição em banco de tubos. Os resultados obtidos por esta correlação apresentaram reduzidos desvios em relação aos experimentais. / The research reported herein is a theoretical and experimental investigation of nucleate boiling heat transfer in an isolated tube and a row of three horizontal tubes. The literature review provided enough information to raise the intervening physical parameters and several correlations. The experimental bench has been developed and adapted to perform experiments with several refrigerants, three different tube diameters, and to accommodate a row of three parallel tubes. The experiments have been carried out with refrigerants R-11, R-123 and R-134a. Heating of the brass tubes has been provided by tubular electrical heaters inserted inside the tubes. The heat flux varied from 1 to 40 kW/'M POT.2'. Experiments have been carried out by successively heating two and three tubes. Effects of boiling in tubes underneath (lower level) have been investigated. Finally a correlation for the heat transfer coefficient in successive tubes of a tube bank has been developed. The correlation presents good accuracy with respect to data from the present investigation.

Ebulição convectiva de refrigerantes halogenados escoando no interior de tubos horizontais de cobre / Convective boiling of halocarbon refrigerants flowing in horizontal copper tubes

Lima, Carlos Umberto da Silva 07 April 2000 (has links)
A presente pesquisa teve por objetivo o estudo da ebulição convectiva dos novos refrigerantes halogenados no interior de tubos horizontais de cobre. Uma busca na literatura pertinente ao assunto mostrou que a determinação do coeficiente de transferência de calor pode ser determinado por correlações que, aqui, foram classificadas como: 1- Estritamente Convectivas, 2- Superposição de Efeitos e 3- Estritamente Empíricas. Essas correlações mostraram-se inadequadas a generalizações. Uma bancada experimental foi concebida e construída, o que permitiu a obtenção de dados experimentais envolvendo uma ampla faixa de condições operacionais. Efeitos de parâmetros físicos como a velocidade mássica, fluxo de calor, temperatura de saturação e título, foram investigados. Os dados experimentais obtidos foram utilizados no desenvolvimento de uma correlação para o coeficiente de transferência de calor na ebulição convectiva que satisfizesse adequadamente esses dados obtidos para condições operacionais típicas de aplicações frigoríficas. A partir da análise efetuada foi proposto um modelo no qual foram introduzidos os adimensionais que envolvem os principais efeitos relacionados à mudança de fase. O modelo proposto apresentou resultados bastante adequados não apenas na correlação dos resultados experimentais obtidos na presente pesquisa como também em dados encontrados na literatura. / Present research has aimed at the study of convective boiling of recently introduced halocarbon refrigerants inside horizontal copper tubes. A comprehensive literature survey has revealed that the correlations for the convective boiling heat transfer coefficient can be divided into three main categories: (1) strictly convective; (2) superposition of effects; (3) strictly empirical. As a general rule these correlations are not fitted for generalizations. An experimental set up has been developed and constructed in order to raise data involving a relatively wide range of operational conditions. These data have been used to investigate effects of such parameters as heat flux, mass velocity, quality and evaporating temperature. In addition gathered data have been used in the development of a correlation for the heat transfer coefficient under convective boiling conditions typical of refrigeration applications. The model has been developed in terms of the main intervening non dimensional groups. The proposed equation correlated very well not only experimental data from present investigation but data obtained else where.

Active magnetic regenerator experimental optimization

Tura, Armando 30 November 2009 (has links)
A technology that has the potential to create more efficient and compact refrigeration devices is an Active Magnetic Regenerative Refrigerator (AMRR). An AMRR can operate over a broad range of temperatures, as long as the appropriate refrigerant is implemented. Thus this flexible technology can be used for small, efficient, and simple room temperature refrigerators, as well as efficient gas liquefaction plants (AMRLs). Active Magnetic Regenerator Refrigeration exploits the magnetocaloric effect displayed by magnetic materials whereby a reversible temperature change is induced when the material is exposed to a magnetic field. By using the magnetic materials in a regenerator as the heat storage medium and as the means of work input, one creates an Active Magnetic Regenerator (AMR). In this work, an experimental study of Active Magnetic Regenerators composed of single and multi-materials is carried out. AMRs made up of Gd, Gd.74Tb.26, and Gd.85Er.15 are studied in cycles rejecting heat between 270 K and 311 K. A variety of operating conditions were tested and regenerator performance with respect to heat load, utilization, and frequency was examined. AMR behavior was qualitatively interpreted and a path for performance improvement and future investigations laid.
