Abstract:In this study, we conduct an experimental study on condensation heat transfer and pressure drop using a horizontal smooth and internally helical-grooved small-diameter tube with an outside diameter of 4.00 mm. The experimental apparatus is a vapor compression heat pump system, which consists of a compressor, a pre-condenser, test sections, a rear-condenser, a receiver, an electronic expansion valve, an evaporator, and heat-source systems. In the experiments, R410A was used as the refrigerant; the ranges of ref… Show more
