Flow boiling of R32 inside a brazed plate heat exchanger

摘要

This paper presents measurements of heat transfer coefficient obtained during flow boiling of R32 inside a brazed plate heat exchanger (BPHE). Although R32 is known as a very interesting refrigerant for its thermodynamic and thermophysical properties, very limited flow boiling data are published in the open literature for R32 working in brazed plate heat exchangers.
