Experimental results for heat transfer characteristic and pressure gradient of HCs refrigerants R-290, R-600a, R-1270 and HCFC refrigerant R-22 during condensing inside horizontal double pipe heat exchangers are presented. The test sections which have one tube diameter of 12.70 mm with 0.86 mm wall thickness, another tube diameter of 9.52 mm with 0.76 mm wall thickness are used for this investigation. The local condensing heat transfer coefficients of hydrocarbon refrigerants were higher than those of R-22. The average condensing heat transfer coefficient increased with the increase of the mass flux. It showed the higher values in hydrocarbon refrigerants than R-22. Hydrocarbon refrigerants have higher pressure drop than those of R-22 in 12.7 mm and 9.52 mm. This results from the investigation can be used in the design of heat transfer exchangers using hydrocarbons as the refrigerant for the air-conditioning systems.

This paper deals with the heat exchange performance prediction of a counter flow type double-tube condenser for natural refrigerant mixtures composed of Propane/n-Butane or Propane/i-Butane in a smooth tube and a micro-fin tube. The local characteristics of heat transfer, mass transfer and pressure drop are calculated using a prediction method developed by the authors. The total pressure drop and the overall heat transfer coefficient are also evaluated on various heat exchange conditions. The calculated results of the natural refrigerant mixtures are compared with HCFC22. In conclusion, natural refrigerant mixtures composed of Propane/n-Butane or Propane/i-Butane are appropriate candidates for alternative refrigerant from the viewpoint of heat transfer characteristics.

Because of environmental issues caused by CFC, HCFC or HFC refrigerants, new alternative refrigerants has gained a significant attention. This paper presents experimental information on heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop behavior during evaporation process of R32/290 mixtures in a horizontal smooth tube. A smooth tube with outer diameter of 5 mm and length of 5 m was selected as a test tube. Heat transfer coefficients and pressure drop characteristics were measured for a range of mass fluxes from 497 to 994 $kg/m^2s$, heat fluxes from 12 to 20 $kW/m^2$ and for several mixture compositions(100/0, 75/25, 58.4/41.6, 2s/75, 100/0 by wt% of R32/290). The differences of measured heat transfer characteristics among various R32/290 refrigerant mixtures were analyzed for various compositions.

Experimental results for heat transfer characteristic and pressure gradient of hydrocarbon refrigerants (R-290, R-600a, R-1270) and HCFC refrigerant (R-22) during condensation inside horizontal double pipe heat exchangers are presented. The test sections which have one tube diameter of 12.70 mm with 0.89 mm, 9.52 mm with 0.76 mm, 6.35 mm with 0.13 mm wall thickness are used for this investigation, respectively. The local condensing heat transfer coefficients of hydrocarbon refrigerants were higher than those of R-22. The average condensing heat transfer coefficient increased with the increase of the mass flux. It showed the higher values in hydrocarbon refrigerants than R-22. Hydrocarbon refrigerants have higher pressure drop than R-22 in 10.92 mm, 8 mm and 6.1 mm inner diameters. These results from the investigation can be used in the design of heat transfer exchangers using hydrocarbons as the refrigerant for the air-conditioning systems.

In this paper, evaporation heat transfer characteristics at a inner grooved tube were studied using a new natural refrigerants R-290, R-600a and HCFC refrigerant R-22. Experiments were performed in the inner tube with outside diameter of 12.70mm, having 75 fins with a fin height of 0.25mm. The following results were obtained from this research. On the evaporating heat transfer characteristics, the maximum increment of heat transfer coefficient was found in R-290. Average heat transfer coefficient was obtained the maximum value in R-290 and the minimum value in R-22. It reveals that the natural refrigerant can be used as a substitute for R-22. In the grooved inner tube, 70% of the increment of the heat transfer coefficient was obtained compared to the smooth tube. Comparing the heat transfer coefficient between experimental results and simulation data of other's, the Kandlikar's correlated equation was closely approximated to the author's experimental results in the smooth tube or grooved inner one.

1990년대 중반부터 후반에 결쳐 미국의 Astronautics사와 Ames연구소에 의한 공동연구결과는 자기냉동이 실현 가능한기술이며 가스액화,음식 냉동 및 저장, 대규모 건물 공조 등에 있어서 기존의 증기압축냉동에 필적할 만하다는 것을 밝혔다. 더 최근의 연구와 개발 노력은 자기장 원(source)으로 $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ 영구자석배열을 이용한 회전식 자기냉동기가 가정용 공조기나 냉동/냉장고에 사용될 수 있음을 나타내고있다. Gd 금속구를 사용한 2단 자기 냉동/냉장고의 예비설계는 냉동실 온도가 $-12^{\circ}C(10^{\circ}F)$, 냉동실 온도가 $-1^{\circ}C(30^{\circ}F)$에서 전체 성능계수 3 그리고 냉각능력 120W를 얻을 수 있음을 제시한다. 자기장 원으로서 개선된 영구자석 배열을 이용한다면 카르노 효율의 60%와 성능계수 4.5에 이를 수 있을 것으로 보여진다. 그리고 자기냉동은 오존층 파괴물질 (CFC's)이나 온설가스(HCFC's와 HFC's)를 사용하지 않기 때문에 깨끗한 환경을 만드는데 기여한다. 동시에 상용 Gd으로부터 거대한 자기열량효과를 가진 재료인 $Gd_5(Si_2Ge_2)$를 kg 단위로 생산할 수 있는 정도로 연구가 진전되었다. 이 신재료를 저렴한 가격에 얻을 수 있게 됨으로써 Gd 금속을 자기냉매로 사용하도록 설계 되었던 공조기나 냉동/냉장고의 효율이 더 좋아질 것으로 예상된다.

The evaporating heat transfer experiments with refrigerant HCFC 22 are performed for performance evaluation using 4 and 6 kinds of microfin tubes with outer diameter of 9.52mm and 7.0mm, respectively. Used microfin tubes have different shape and number of fins with each other, The experimental results are represented with effects of quality, mass flux and EPR. The evaporating heat transfer characteristics are represented by the existence of not only heat transfer area and turbulence promotion effect but also additional other enhancement mechanism, which are the overflow of the refrigerant over the microfin and microfin arrangement. Microfin tubes having a shape which can give much overflow over the microfin show large evaporating heat transfer coefficients. The effect of refrigerant overflow is much severe in evaporation than condensation. The effect of microfin arrangement is related to overflow effect of the refrigerant over the microfin.

To examine the enhancement mechanism of condensing heat transfer through microfin tube, the condensation experiments with refrigerant HCFC 22 are performed using 4 and 6 kinds of microfin tubes with outer diameter of 9.52mm and 7.0mm, respectively. Used microfin tubes have different shape and number of fins with each other The main heat transfer enhancement mechanism is known to be the enlargement of heat transfer area and turbulence promotion. Together with these main factors, we can find other enhancement factors by the experimental data, which are the overflow of the refrigerant over the microfin and microfin arrangement. The overflow of the refrigerant over the microfin can be analyzed by the geometric shape of the microfin. Microfin tubes having a shape which can give much overflow over the microfin show large condensing heat transfer coefficients. The effect of microfin arrangement is related to the heat transfer resistance of liquid film of refrigerant. The condensing heat transfer coefficients are high for the microfin tube with even distribution of liquid film.

With the phaseout of CFC and HCFC refrigerants, refrigeration and heat pump systems must be redesigned to match and improve system performance with alternative refrigerants. A generalized flow model for predicting mass flow rate through short tube orifices is derived from a power law form of dimensionless parameters generated by Pi-theorem. The database for developing the correlation includes extensive experimental data for R12, R22, R134a, R407C, R410A, and R502 from the open literature. The correlation yields an average deviation of $0.3\%$ and a standard deviation of $6.1\%$ based on the present database. In addition, rating charts for predicting refrigerant flow rate through short tube orifices are generated for R12, R22, R134a, R407C, R410A, and R502.

Nowadays HCFCs refrigerant are restricted because it cause depletion of ozone layer. However, natural gases such as ammonia as an organic compound, propane and propylene as hydrocarbon are easy and cheap to obtain as well as environmental. Accordingly, this experiment apply the $NH_3$ and R22 to study the performance characteristic from the superheat control and compare the energy efficiency of two refrigerants from the high performance. The condensing pressure of refrigeration system is increased from 15bar to 16bar and degree of superheat is increased from 0 to $10^{\circ}C$ at each condensing pressure. As the result of experiment, when comparing the each COP, we knew the $NH_3$ is suitable as the alternative refrigerant of the R22.
