Review on Condenser Heat Transfer of Computational FluidDynamic System Using ANSYS

Abstract

Condenser is a high pressure side heat exchanger in which heated vapor enters and gets converted into liquid form by condensation process. In the condenser coil, gaseous substance is condensed into liquid by transferring latent heat content present in it to the surrounding. In the whole process, mode of heat transfer is conduction in condenser coil and forced convection between refrigerant and condenser. Any refrigeration system's backbone is comprised of condensers. It aids in the transfer of heat from the refrigerant to the universal sink, which is the atmosphere. The latent heat of the refrigerant is lost in the condenser. At the entry of the condenser, vapours from the compressor enter, and during the length of the condenser, the vapours are converted to liquid form, resulting in refrigerant in the form of saturated or even sub-cooled liquid form at the condenser's exit. In several sectors of chemical and petroleum engineering, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a common tool for simulating flow systems. As a branch of fluid mechanics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an appropriate tool for investigating and modelling the ANSYS Program. The applicability of CFD studies for simulating the ANSYS Program was reviewed in this work. Ansys CFD is one of the industry's most powerful simulation packages
