Experiments have been conducted to measure the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop in fluidized bed double pope heat exchangers with smooth tube and longitudinal finned tube. The effect of particle size(alumina beads; do=0.41, 0.54, 0.65, 0.77 mm) and static bed height on the heat transfer coefficient has been evaluated in terms of pumping power. The heat transfer coefficient for the smooth tube and finned tube heat exchangers has been compared with single phase double pipe heat exchanger. Results show that the heat transfer coefficients for the finned tube in $2.96{\sim}3.45$ times higher than the smooth tube. The heat transfer coefficients for the fluidized bed heat exchanger is higher than the single phase heat exchanger for the most of pumping power range tested. The maximum increase in the heat transfer coefficient for fluidized bed is 91.3% for the smooth tube and 127.1% for the finned tube.

In this study, dry and wet surface pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of heat exchangers having plain fins were investigated. Nine samples having different fin pitches and rows were tested. The wet surface heat transfer coefficient was reduced from experimental data using enthalpy-potential method. The wet surface heat transfer coefficients were approximately equal to the dry surface values except for one row configuration. For one row configuration, the wet surface heat transfer coefficients were approximately $30\%$ lower than the dry surface values. For the pressure drop, the wet surface yielded approximately $30\%$ higher values compared with the dry surface counterpart. Data were compared with existing correlations.

Effects of gap sizes (3.9-44.3 mm) of vertical annuli on nucleate pool boiling heat transfer of water at atmospheric pressure have been obtained experimentally. Through the study, tubes of the closed bottom have been investigated and results are compared with those of a single unconfined tube. According to the results, the annular condition gives much increase in heat transfer coefficient at moderate heat fluxes. The increase is much enhanced 3s the gap size decreases. At the same tube wall superheat (about 3.1 K) the heat transfer coefficient for the least gap size (i.e., 3.9 mm) is more than three times greater than that of the unconfined tube. However, deterioration of heat transfer occurs at high heat flux for confined boiling.

Due to the coupling between momentum and energy transport theoretical analysis of the loop performance is very complicate, therefore it is necessary that these problems be solved by experimental investigation before applying the loop thermosyphon to heat exchanger de-sign. The evaporator and condenser of the loop thermosyphon were made of carbon-steel, and distilled water was used as working fluid in the experiments. From the experimental data correlations of heat transfer coefficient for evaporator and condenser sections were obtained. For heat fluxes in the range of 13000~78000 W/$m^2$, the correlation equations of heat transfer coefficients in evaporator and condenser predict the experimental behavior to within $\pm$5% and $\pm$20% respectively.

The pressure drop and heat transfer coefficient were measured at room temperature in a CFB heat exchanger with multiple vertical tubes. The circulation rate of solid particles was also measured. The theoretical model for predicting heat transfer coefficient using the solid flowrate was developed in this study. The model predictions were compared with the measured heat transfer coefficient to show relatively good agreement.

Finite Element analysis is widely applied to elevated temperature forging processes and shows a lot of information of plastic deformation such as strain, stress, defects, damages and temperature distributions. In highly elevated temperature deformation processes, temperature of material and tool have significant influence on tool life, deformation conditions and productivities. To predict temperature related properties accurately, adequate coefficients of not only contact heat transfer between material and dies but also convection heat transfer due to coolants are required. In most F.E analysis, too higher value of contact heat transfer coefficient is usually applied to get acceptable temperature distribution of tool. For contact heat transfer coefficients between die and workpiece, accurate values were evaluated with different pressure and lubricants conditions. But convection heat transfer coefficients have not been investigated for forging lubricants. In this research, convection heat transfer coefficients for cooling by emulsion lubricants are suggested by experiment and Inverse method. To verify acquired convection and contact heat transfer coefficients, tool temperature was measured for the comparison between measured tool temperature and analysis results. To increase analysis accuracy, repeated analysis scheme was applied till temperature of the tool got to be in the steady-state conditions. Verification of heat transfer coefficients both contact and convection heat transfer coefficients was proven with good accordance between measurement and analysis.

Experimental study has been carried out on the characteristics of pressure drop and heat transfer of brazed plate heat exchangers using R-22. Data are presented for the following range of variables: the mass flux (40∼90kg/$m^2$s), chevron angle ($20^{\circ}$, $35^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$) and inlet pressure of the refrigerant (1.4 and 1.6MPa). For both subcooled and two-phase flow, as chevron angle increases, pressure drop and heat transfer coefficient decrease. Condensation heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop were compared with the previously proposed correlations. Among therm, Traviss correlation agreed with experimental results within -40%∼-84% for heat transfer coefficient and -59%∼62% for pressure drop.

This paper is to research the heat transfer performance of the sintered pipe. Recently, oil prices is to be 127 $ per barrel, we expect higher costs this summer. We promote alternative fuels, after oil and gasoline prices reached record highs. The governments have made efforts to avoid future crisis by continuing the move toward renewable energy and energy saving. In this paper, we have fabricated a sintered pipe, the heat transfer performance of sintered pipe is achieved experimentally. The pipe is copper tube of outer diameter of 15.88 mm, the length of the pipe is 800 mm. Based on the experimental results, it is shown the overall heat transfer coefficient of sintered pipe is increased as compared with that of a straight pipe, is equal as compared with that of a spiral pipe. The overall heat transfer coefficient was $0.075{\sim}0.09\;kW/^{\circ}C$
