Title: A computational scheme for calculating refrigerant properties & heat transfer in boiling tube flow
Author: Au, Edwin C.F.
Issue Date: 1999
School/Discipline: Dept. of Mechanical Engineering
Abstract: This study aims to develop a computational scheme (AuCFD) for calculating refrigerant properties, two-phase heat transfer coefficients and pressure drop of R12 and R134a in a horizontal tube. The scheme can help to understand the characteristics of refrigerant flow under different conditions and estimate the performance of direct expansion heat exchangers.
