  • Two-phase flow distribution of R410A within the vertical header of a microchannel heat exchanger

説明

<p>With an ultimate goal of enhancing the flow distribution within a microchannel heat exchanger, an experimental apparatus was designed and constructed. This study presented an initial evaluation and investigation of R410A distribution with mass flowrate of 40, 60, 80 kg/h or mass flux of 120, 180, 240 kg/m2s. The inlet vapor quality before the header was varied at 0.1, 0.2 and 0.6. The inlet flow entered at the bottom with a normal location towards the vertical header. 20 horizontal parallel flat tubes having microchannel holes were protruded half-width of the header where the flow was distributed. Individual pressure drop and flowrate were measured. Corresponding inlet vapor quality for each was calculated. Visualization was conducted for the observation of the flow behavior at the vertical header. Increase on the liquid level at higher mass flux and more homogeneous two-phase flow at lower quality were observed within the header, which yielded better distribution.</p>
