Chapter 3: Convective Condensation of Refrigerant–Oil Mixtures Inside Smooth and Microfin Tubes
Convective condensation of refrigerant–oil mixtures inside smooth and microfin tubes are described. The heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop characteristics of refrigerant–oil mixtures during convective condensation inside smooth and microfin tubes are analyzed. Some existing correlations for convective condensation of refrigerant–oil mixtures inside smooth and microfin tubes are presented.
