혼합증기(수증기/공기)의 막응축 열전달 계수를 수직한 벽면에서 측정하고 상관식을 개발하였다. 열전달 상관식은 액막측과 증기측으로 구분하여 만들었고, 액막측 전열계수의 상관식은 액막의 Reynolds수와 Prandtl수의 함수로 나타냈으며, 증기측 전열계수의 상관식은 증기의 Reynolds수, Prandtl수, Schmidt수 및 공기의 질량분율, 액막 Reynolds수의 함수로 제안하였다. 응축 액막의 두께와 확산층의 순간온도 측정결과로부터 액막의 파형 계면이 확산층에서의 열 및 물질전달에 큰 영향을 끼치고 있음을 확인하였고, 증기측 전열계수의 상관식에 포함된 액막 Reynolds수가 파형 계면의 영향을 반영하고 있다.

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of a tube row, a fin pitch and an inlet humidity on air-side heat and mass transfer performance of louvered fin-tube heat exchangers under wet conditions. Experimental conditions were varied by three fin pitches, two rows, two inlet relative humidities. Experimental results showed that the heat transfer performance decreased and the friction increased with the decrease of fin pitch, for 2 row heat exchanger. The effect of fin pitch on heat transfer performance was negligible with 3 row heat exchanger. The changes in relative humidity was not affected heat transfer and friction. However, the mass transfer performance was slightly decreased with the increase of relative humidity and with the decrease of fin pitch. The mass transfer performance of the louvered fin-tube heat exchanger decreased with the decrease of the fin pitch and was different according to the number of tube row.

핀-관 열교환기의 효율을 증대시키기 위하여는 열저항을 결정하는데 있어서 중요한 역할을 하는 공기측 열전달 특성의 향상이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 슬릿핀과 같은 핀 형상의 개선으로 인한 높은 압력손실을 감소시키기 위하여 타원관형 열교환기를 고려하였으며 이를 자체 개발한 3차원 비압축성 Navier-Stokes 코드를 이용하여 공기측 성능을 해석하였다. 이 코드는 시간항에 스칼라 내재적 근사분해법(scalar implicit approximate factorization)절차, 공간항에 유한체적법과 2차의 풍상차분법을 사용한다. 핀 형상이 평판핀인 타원관에 대하여 세장비가 0.3, 0.5, 0.75인 경우와 핀 형상이 슬릿핀이고 세장비가 0.5인 타원관에 대하여 공기측 유동을 해석하였으며 이를 원관의 성능과 비교하였다. 평판핀의 경우, 압력강하량은 원관과 비교하여 세장비가 작아질수록 감소하는 것을 볼 수 있었으며, 열전달 계수는 고려한 유입속도 범위에서 원관을 기준으로 약 5%이하의 변화로 거의 동일하게 유지되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 슬릿핀의 경우 역시 문제되는 높은 압력강하량은 타원관을 도입함으로써 효과적으로 낮출 수 있음을 볼 수 있었다.

The objective of this study is to investigate the air-side heat transfer characteristics of a spirally-coiled circular fin-tube heat exchanger for various geometric parameters under non-frosting conditions. The heat transfer characteristics of the heat exchanger were analyzed with respect to heat exchanger geometries, and then, the characteristics were compared with those of rectangular-plate fin-tube heat exchangers with discrete fins. The heat transfer coefficient increased with a decrease in the number of tube rows and an increase in the fin pitch. The optimum length of the L-foot was 2.7 mm. In addition, the heat transfer rate increased with a decrease in the tube pitch and the tube thickness. The heat transfer coefficient of the spirally-coiled circular fin-tube heat exchanger was 24.3% higher than that of the rectangular-plate fin-tube heat exchanger.

An experimental study has been performed to investigate the characteristics of air-side heat transfer and friction of a fined tube heat exchanger under heating conditions. Air enthalpy calorimeter was used to obtain the performance evaluation and analysis of the fined tube heat exchanger. Eight finned tube heat exchangers with slit fin, louver fin, and plain fin were used. The air-side heat transfer coefficient was calculated by the log-mean-temperature-difference. Air-side heat transfer and friction were presented in terms of j factor and friction factor on Reynolds number. From the experimental result, it was found that the variations of air-side heat transfer and friction of fined tube heat exchanger with the change of the fin configuration, row number, fin pitch, and tube circuit were obtained. j factor and friction factor decreased with Reynolds number increased. The tube circuit affected the air-side heat transfer and friction. In the case of slit and louver fin, j factor of 1st row was higher than that of 2nd row. But, with increasing Re, j factor was reversed. The characteristics of j factor and friction factor of 2nd row heat exchanger were different according to the kind of fins.

We investigate the heat-transfer and pressure-drop characteristics of fin-and-tube heat exchangers with a copper plate or copper spiral fins. Twenty-four samples with different fin pitches and tube rows were tested. For both configurations, the effect of the fin pitch on the j factor is negligible, and the f factor increases with the fin pitch. The effect of the tube row depends on the configuration. For plate fin-and-tube heat exchangers, the j factor decreases as the row number increases; the reverse is true for spiral exchangers. We explain this by considering the flow pattern. The j factor for plate fin-and-tube heat exchangers is larger than that for spiral exchangers, and the difference decreases as the row number increases. The f factor of the plate fin-and-tube heat exchanger is also larger. We compare our results with existing predictions of correlations.

본 연구에서는 나선형과 판형의 핀을 가진 원자력 발전소용 직교류 핀-관 열교환기의 열량을 ARI Standard-410에 따라 실험적으로 측정하여 풍속과 냉수속에 따른 열저항 및 압력 손실을 도출하는 것을 목적으로 하였으며, 이러한 시도를 통해서 실제 열교환기의 성능 평가시 필요한 기술적 자료를 축적하고자 하였다. 실험에서는 나선형 6fin/in, 8fin/1n, 10fin/in 열교환기와 판형 8fin/in 열교환기를 사용하였으며, 풍속을 0.486m/s와 2.214m/s로, 수속을 1m/s～4m/s로 하여 실험을 행하였다. 실험 결과를 통하여, 원자력 발전소의 격납 용기내의 공기조화를 위하여 사용되어 지는 열교환기의 성능 평가 방법 및 실증 능력을 확보하였으며, 풍속 증가에 따라 총괄 열전달 계수는 전체적으로 비례 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 판형이 나선형 보다 열전달 계수가 작게 나타났으며, 나선형 열교환기의 경우 fin수에 따른 변화는 크지 않았으나, 열전달 면적을 고려한 경우에는 나선형 10fin/in 열교환기가 가장 뛰어난 열교환 성능을 발휘함을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 공기측의 압력 손실은 전체적으로 전연 풍속 증가에 따라서 속도 제곱에 비례하여 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

An experimental study is performed to investigate the effect of air-side heat transfer and friction on characteristics of finned tube heat exchanger under dry surface and wet surface conditions (RH 50%, 70%). Air enthalpy calorimeter is used to obtain the performance evaluation and analysis of a fined tube heat exchanger. Four finned tube heat exchangers with slit fin or plain fin are tested. The number of tube rows are 2 and 3, and the tube diameter is 7 mm. Air-side heat transfer and friction are presented in terms of j factor and friction factor. At dry surface condition, j factor decreases with increasing Re and j factor of 3 row is lower than that of 2 row. Also, the friction factor of a slit fin is larger than that of a plain fin. At wet surface condition, the heat transfer effect is more significant in the case of the slit fin than the plain fin and 2 row than 3 row. The j factor and friction factor are affected by humidity, tube row and fin configuration.

Air side heat transfer and pressure drop for fin-tube heat exchanger with wave and wave-slit fins were measured for various fin spacings and number of tube rows. Outer diameter of the tube including fin collar is 10.07mm, and experiments were done with dry surface condition. Longitudinal and transverse tube spacings of the heat exchangers are 21.65mm and 25mm respectively, and wave depth of the wave fin is 2mm. Experiments were conducted for 1, 2 and 3 rows and 3 different fin spacings, 1.3, 1.5 and 1.7mm. An attempt was made to demonstrate advantage of the enhanced fins over the plane fin by introducing the concept of fan power, Effect of the number of tube rows on heat transfer was discussed in connection with general mechanisms of heat transfer enhancement for fin-tube heat exchanger. Also the effect of hydrophilic coating was investigated. Lastly, correlations for Colburn j-factor and friction factor were developed.

An experimental study has been performed to investigate the performance and heat transfer characteristics of the heat exchanger for simultaneous cooling/heating heat pump. The heat transfer performance was measured using an air-enthalpy calorimeter and a constant temperature water bath, to obtain the performance evaluation and analysis of a fined tube heat exchanger. Six finned tube heat exchangers with louver fin were tested under a heating condition. Air-side heat transfer and friction were presented in terms of j-factor and f-factor. The heat transfer coefficient increased with decreasing the fin pitch, j-factor and f-factor on the fin pitch and the number of tube rows decreased with increasing Reair.
