Fin-tube heat exchangers are widely used in refrigeration systems. To improve the performance of fin-tube heat exchangers, the shape of plain fin was developed in slit fin and louver fin. These pins have higher heat transfer performance as well as larger pressure drop. Recent studies of a delta winglet vortex generators(DWVG) show less heat transfer capacity than louver fin. However, the DWVG have very small pressure drop. This paper compares the performance for the plain fin and DWVG fin in terms of flow characteristics and heat transfer based on CFD analyses. The DWVG generate vortex and delayed flow separation and leads to a reduction of a wake region behind a tube. The results show that the DWVG produce improved heat transfer and reduced pressure drop compared to a plain fin. This result is opposite to the Reynolds analogy.

This study is performed to investigate heat transfer characteristics for thermal performance of fin-and-tube sensible heat exchangers under the low air flowrate according to fin geometry combination and coolant flowrate control. Fins and tubes of samples were separated between front row and rear row. Experiment results are plotted heat transfer rate of each row, heat transfer coefficient and sensible heat ratio against water flowrate control of each row. It is observed that thermal performance can be enhanced by fin geometry combination and water flowrate control of each row under the low air flowrate.

The water-to-air heat pump system requires relatively lower energy consumption and less installation space. The heat exchangers used for this system are the finned-tube type for the indoor unit and the double-tube type for the outdoor unit. Mathematical models for this system are developed and programmed in computer. Experimental data from various conditions are obtained and compared with calculated values from the computer simulation program. Differences of cooling capacity and COP are 1.25% and 0.47%, and those of heating capacity and COP are 0.51% and 0.13%, respectively. Simulation results are in good agreement with test results. Therefore, the developed program is effectively used for the design and the performance prediction of water-to-air heat pump system.

Cycle analysis has been performed to find out the optimum design point of the BOG re-liquefaction plant. The cycle state, defined by three cycle variables, was mainly described by the three cold temperatures of the three-pass heat exchanger, on which the constraints by the heat exchanger are imposed. The cycle states which are confined within a domain limited by the temperature constraints were the primary issue of this study. The BOG mass within the domain was analyzed first and then the cycle performance was related to the BOG mass afterwards, which enabled us to explain the observed behavior of the cycle performance under the temperature constraints by the heat exchanger. A good cycle performance could be ensured if the two cold Nitrogen temperatures of the three temperatures were placed close together near $-140^{\circ}C$ while the BOG temperature is kept far above enough, but not too far, from $-140^{\circ}C$ such that it does not interfere in their optimum temperature range.

The Taguchi method was applied to investigate the effect of design factors on the performance of the shutdown cooling heat exchanger in the SMART-P. This method provided the simulation matrix for the KDESCENT program and an efficient tool for analyzing the simulation results. Levels of the design factors were selected by the effectiveness-NTU method. From 18 runs with the KDESCENT program, it was found that the performance of the system was greatly influenced by the inlet temperature at the shell side and the mass flow rate of the reactor coolant at the tube side. After applying the Taguchi method, we identified the important design factor that should be controlled and designed carefully. This method provides an efficient way to estimate the influence of each design factor on a system performance.

The printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) with airfoil fins has the benefits of high compactness, high efficiency and superior heat transfer performance. A novel multi-objective optimization approach is presented to design the airfoil fin PCHE in this paper. Three optimization design variables (the vertical number, the horizontal number and the staggered number) are obtained by means of dimensionless airfoil fin arrangement parameters. And the optimization objective is to maximize the Nusselt number (Nu) and minimize the Fanning friction factor (f). Firstly, in order to investigate the impact of design variables on the thermal-hydraulic performance, a parametric study via the design of experiments is proposed. Subsequently, the relationships between three optimization design variables and two objective functions (Nu and f) are characterized by an improved particle swarm optimization-backpropagation artificial neural network. Finally, a multi-objective optimization is used to construct the Pareto optimal front, in which the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II is used. The comprehensive performance is found to be the best when the airfoil fins are completely staggered arrangement. And the best compromise solution based on the TOPSIS method is identified as the optimal solution, which can achieve the requirement of high heat transfer performance and low flow resistance.

삼면이 바다인 우리나라에서는 지구 온난화에 따른 해수면 상승과 같은 환경 문제 와 국민소득 증가에 따른 해양공간에 대한 수요의 증가로 플로팅 건축물의 발전 가능성이 크다. 하지만 아직까지 플로팅건축물 주변에 존재하는 해수열에너지를 이용을 위한 수중 열교환기에 대한 기초 연구가 부족하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 플로팅 건축물에서 해수 열 이용을 위한 수중 열교환기 모델 개발 및 실험을 통하여 성능을 평가하였다.

Nowadays heat exchangers that have been applied for freon refrigerating systems, a shell and tube type condenser, but because of their large size, large space for installation and more amount of refrigerants are needed. Therefore, in this study, we will find the most suitable operating condition through the comparison of performance between the shell & tube type and shell & disk type heat exchanger with R22. The experiments are carried out for the condensing pressure of refrigeration system from 1500kPa to 1600kPa and for the degree of superheat from 0 to $1^{\circ}C$ at each condensing pressure. As a result of experiment, if the shell & disk type heat exchanger is applied for R22 refrigerating systems, minimized input of refrigerants and space required for installation will be secured, which will have a great contribute to financial improvement for industry.

This paper describes experimental investigation on neon refrigeration system using commercial helium compressor. In this paper, neon refrigeration cycle is calculated with assumption of ideal heat exchanger. From analysis, 32.6 K of the lowest temperature and 0.945 of quality after expansion are predicted. Cryogenic heat exchangers for pre cooler and main heat exchanger are designed and fabricated with configuration of tube-in-tube heat exchanger. In experiments, cooling performance test are performed as variation of charging pressure and orifice hole diameter. From experimental results, the lowest temperature of 44.0 K was measured with 500 ${\mu}m$ orifice and 1500 kPa of charging pressure.
