Investigation of Flow Boiling in Micro-Channels: Heat Transfer, Pressure Drop and Evaluation of Existing Correlations

In this study, the flow boiling heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of refrigerant R134a in micro-channels were experimentally investigated. The tests were performed in circular horizontal micro-channels with inner diameters of 0.5 mm and 1 mm and a heating length of 300 mm. The mass vel...
