Abstract

The experiments on the flow boiling heat transfer of HCFC22 and HCFC123 were performed using a horizontal spirally grooved STB-340-S-C steel tube with 12mm in average inner diameter. The test tube was developed as a evaporator tube of an air-conditioner using an ammonia refrigerant. The circumferentially averaged heat transfer coefficients and wall temperature distributions were presented and discussed by comparison with the predicted values by available correlations for ordinary grooved copper tubes. The empirical correlation was proposed for the heat transfer coefficients in the region where the wall surface is completely covered by liquid.
