Abstract

The double tube structure is simulated, R32 in the inner helical corrugated tubes with vertical grooves is heated by the water flowing in the outer tube to make it boil. The influence of pipe diameter and number of vertical grooves on the performance of double tube is analyzed. The evaporation temperature of the refrigerant is 283K. The temperatures of inlet refrigerant and inlet water are 280K and 320K, respectively. The flow velocity of inlet refrigerant and inlet water are 1m/s and 5m/s, respectively. The simulation results show that, compared with the smooth pipe, when the inner pipe diameter is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7mm, the surface heat transfer coefficients of the double tube have been increased by 160%, 150%, 147%, 138%, and 130%, respective. when PEC=1.691, the performance of the inner helical corrugated tube is the best, whose inner pipe diameter is 3 mm, outer pipe diameter is 6.2 mm, number of vertical grooves is 10.
