摘要

分布不良严重影响了微通道换热器（MCHX）的传热性能。充分了解热交换器中的两相分布对于推进学术研究和工程应用非常重要。本研究介绍了一种量化微通道热交换器中两相分布的新方法。研究人员开发了一种实验装置，用于测量热交换器集管中的局部蒸汽质量分数。在入口蒸汽质量分数为 0 至 1，入口流速为 10、15 和 25 g s-1 的情况下测量电容信号，对应的质量通量分别为 17.47、26.2 和 43.66 kg m-2s-1。集管中的局部蒸汽质量分数是通过电容测量值估算出来的。利用提出的模型计算了集管、微通道管中的质量流量和管中的蒸汽质量分数。计算模型与文献数据进行了验证，并对结果进行了分析。分析揭示了 MCHX 中蒸汽质量分数和质量流量分布的特点，并进一步阐述了相分离、夹带比和压降平衡对分布的影响。所提出的方法可以评估微通道热交换器集管和管道中的分布，也适用于其他类型的两相流设备。

A method to calculate the two-phase distribution in a microchannel heat exchanger

Maldistribution seriously impacts the heat transfer performance of the microchannel heat exchanger (MCHX). Fully understanding the two-phase distribution in the heat exchanger is important for advancing academic research and engineering applications. This study introduces a novel method for quantifying two-phase distribution in a microchannel heat exchanger. An experimental setup was developed to measure the local vapor mass fraction in the heat exchanger header. Capacitance signals were measured under inlet vapor mass fractions from 0 to 1, and inlet flow rates of 10, 15, and 25 g s⁻¹ corresponding to a mass flux of 17.47, 26.2, and 43.66 kg m⁻²s⁻¹, respectively. The local vapor mass fraction in the header was estimated using the capacitance measurements. The mass flow rate in the header, the microchannel tube, and the vapor mass fraction in the tube were calculated using the proposed model. The calculation model was validated against literature data, and the results were analyzed. The analysis reveals the characteristics of vapor mass fraction and mass flow rate distribution in the MCHX and further elaborates on the effects of phase separation, entrainment ratio, and pressure drop balance on the distribution. The proposed method can evaluate distribution in the header and tubes of microchannel heat exchangers, and it is also applicable to other types of two-phase flow devices.

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.
