Résumé

Printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE), with the core comprising many mini/microchannels, have been extensively studied, but few works involved two-phase flow. A simplified channel model of PCHE hot side was herein established to numerically explore the heat transfer and condensation flow performance of R22 in minichannels under different conditions. The model was a semicircular minichannel with 0.91?mm hydraulic diameter and 50?mm full length. The heat flux was kept at -77,195?, the inlet pressure was 0.63?MPa and the mass fluxes ranged from 58 to 93?. The condensation flow characteristics along the channel were analyzed. Four flow patterns, i.e., smooth-annular, wavy-annular, slug and bubbly, were noticed at different refrigerant mass fluxes and plotted as a flow pattern map. The effects of import vapor quality from 0.5 to 1 on pressure drop and heat transfer performance were evaluated. The heat transfer performance was optimal at the import vapor quality of 0.7. The impacts of refrigerant mass flux on pressure drop and local condensation heat transfer coefficient were assessed. Intermittent flow enhanced heat transfer. In addition, the correlations for local Nusselt number and Fanning friction factor were presented and compared with numerical data.
