Prediction of Heat Transfer Coefficients for Refrigerants Flowing inside a Herringbone Tube

Boiling heat-transfer coefficient variation for R407C inside horizontal tubes of a refrigerating vapour-compression plant’s shell-and-tube evaporator

“…From the basic mechanisms proposed by Chen, Shah [2] establishes a new correlation distinguishing three stages: one dominated by the nucleate-boiling regime, a second stage of bubble suppression and a third stage dominated by convective boiling. Other works based on the consideration of the two mentioned mechanisms are those presented by Kandlikar [3], Gungor-Winterton [4], and Yoshida et al [5].…”
