Rationalized Selection of Cross Fin Evaporator for No-Frost Refrigerator, a Case Study

摘要

Copper tube evaporators are very common in refrigeration applications. Based on heat transfer considerations it was thought that an evaporator in use in a particular refrigerator was larger than the duty necessitated. In order to rationalize this component, a sample made of aluminum (lower cost) was selected for investigation. To adopt the evaporator sample, some modifications are required to optimize the cooling and to have proper installation.
