Pressure drop and heat transfer of heat transportation system equipped with a fan coil unit using surfactant solution

摘要

We examined the pressure drop and heat transfer of a heat transportation system equipped with a fan coil unit using surfactant solution as heat medium. We found that the total pressure drop of the system using surfactant solution was about less 50% than that of one using water. The total heat transfer rate of the fin-tube heat exchanger in the fan coil unit of surfactant solution system was less 16-19% than that of the water system.
