Abstract:This paper presents experimental measurements of natural convection heat transfer and frost deposition over a horizontal fin-tube. Measurements are made for a fin-tube of diameter 25.4 mm, fin thickness 0.4 mm, fin center diameter 56 mm, and fin spacing 2 mm. For measurements the ambient air temperature and relative humidity are changed from 18 to 25°C and from 35% to 55%, respectively. The tube surface temperature is changed from -5 to -9 °C, and super cooling degrees of 7.5 to 24.5 °C.Results include a visua… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
