Abstract

Currently, although significant advancements have been made in understanding heat transfer coefficients and pressure decreases in different tube shapes, there is still a noticeable lack of detailed studies on the generation of entropy under flow boiling conditions. In this work, the entropy generation in micro-fin tubes (MFT1 and MFT2) and smooth tubes (ST1 and ST2) in flow boiling conditions experimentally investigated with refrigerant R513A. Research focused on evaluating influence of different input parameters on entropy generation, specifically contribution of heat transfer coefficient (HTC) and total pressure drop (TPD) on entropy generation for all testing tubes. As at a heat flux of 6 kW·m² and a saturation temperature of 12 °C, MFT1 shows HTC contributions to entropy generation ranging from 0.032 to 0.156 W·K−1, while MFT2 ranges from 0.03 to 0.14 W·K−1. TPD contributions for both MFT1 and MFT2 range from 0.001 to 0.04 W·K−1. Hence, MFT2 shows better results than MFT1 as low entropy generation required for a good heat exchanger. Among input parameters, heat flux displays the highest sensitivity, indicating its significant influence on total entropy generation variations, while vapor quality, mass flux, and saturation temperature also demonstrate notable sensitivity. This research helps us design systems that transfer heat more effectively while using less energy. Understanding these factors can lead to more efficient heat exchangers and other thermal systems.
使用 R513A 制冷剂的光滑管和微翅管中熵产生的比较分析:参数研究
目前,虽然在了解不同形状管子的传热系数和压力下降方面取得了重大进展,但对流动沸腾条件下熵的产生仍然明显缺乏详细研究。在这项工作中,使用制冷剂 R513A 对微翅片管(MFT1 和 MFT2)和光滑管(ST1 和 ST2)在流动沸腾条件下的熵产生进行了实验研究。研究重点是评估不同输入参数对熵产生的影响,特别是传热系数(HTC)和总压降(TPD)对所有测试管熵产生的贡献。在热通量为 6 kW-m-² 和饱和温度为 12 °C 的条件下,MFT1 的热传导系数对熵产生的贡献从 0.032 到 0.156 W-K-1,而 MFT2 则从 0.03 到 0.14 W-K-1。MFT1 和 MFT2 的 TPD 贡献都在 0.001 到 0.04 W-K-1 之间。因此,MFT2 比 MFT1 显示出更好的结果,因为良好的热交换器需要较低的熵生成。在输入参数中,热通量的灵敏度最高,表明其对总熵产生变化有重大影响,而蒸汽质量、质量通量和饱和温度也显示出显著的灵敏度。这项研究有助于我们设计能更有效地传递热量,同时能耗更低的系统。了解这些因素可以提高热交换器和其他热系统的效率。

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Refrigeration is published for the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) by Elsevier. It is essential reading for all those wishing to keep abreast of research and industrial news in refrigeration, air conditioning and associated fields. This is particularly important in these times of rapid introduction of alternative refrigerants and the emergence of new technology. The journal has published special issues on alternative refrigerants and novel topics in the field of boiling, condensation, heat pumps, food refrigeration, carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbons, magnetic refrigeration at room temperature, sorptive cooling, phase change materials and slurries, ejector technology, compressors, and solar cooling. As well as original research papers the International Journal of Refrigeration also includes review articles, papers presented at IIR conferences, short reports and letters describing preliminary results and experimental details, and letters to the Editor on recent areas of discussion and controversy. Other features include forthcoming events, conference reports and book reviews. Papers are published in either English or French with the IIR news section in both languages.
