In this paper, an Artificial Neural Network soft matrix correlation to estimate the pressure drop of air-water two-phase flow is developed. The applicability of the model is extended by using dimensionless physical numbers as inputs (Air-Reynolds number, Water-Reynolds number, and the ratio of Air Inertial Forces to Water Inertial Forces), so the model can be implemented for vertical pipes with the proper combination of diameter-velocity-density-viscosity allowing estimations of dimensional numbers within the range of: Air-Reynolds numbers (430–6100), Water-Reynolds number (2400–7200), and Air-Water-Inertial forces ratio (1.6–1834), including the diameter range from 3 to 28 mm. Experimental measurements of frictional pressure drop of water-air mixtures are determined at different conditions. A search of the most suitable density, viscosity, and friction models was conducted and used in the model. The performance of the proposed ANN correlation is compared against published expressions showing good approximation to experimental data; results indicate that the most used correlations are within a mean relative error ( mre) of 23.9–30.7%, while the proposed ANN has a mre = 0.9%. Two additional features are discussed: i) the applicability and generality of the ANN using untrained data, ii) the applicability in laminar, transitional, and turbulent flow regimen. To take the approach beyond a robust performance mapping, the methodology to translate the ANN into a programmable equation is presented.

In this paper, a theoretical simulation of the influence of geometric parameters of a multilayer wire-on-tube condenser by forced convection, on the thermal capacity is presented. The geometric parameters under study are the wire diameter, the number of wires and wire pitch. The simulation was performed for two domestic refrigerators with the same type of condenser, but using the refrigerants R134a and R600a. Different empirical correlations were also analyzed for the convective heat transfer coefficient, thus selecting the one that best adjusted to previous experimental data, in this case the Zhukauskas correlation. According to the results obtained, the number of wires and their diameter are the factors that most affect heat transfer, increasing heat dissipation in the condenser between 4% and 6%. Finally, the wire pitch had a lesser influence on heat transfer. En este trabajo se presenta un simulación teórica de la influencia de parámetros geométricos, de un condensador multicapa tipo tubo-alambre por convección forzada, sobre la capacidad térmica. Los parámetros geométricos bajo estudio son el diámetro del alambre, número de alambres y el paso del alambre. La simulación se realizó para dos refrigeradores domésticos con el mismo tipo de condensador, pero usando los refrigerantes R134a y R600a. También se analizaron diferentes correlaciones empíricas para el coeficiente convectivo de transferencia de calor, seleccionando así la que mas se ajustó a datos experimentales previos, en este caso la correlación de Zhukauskas. Según los resultados obtenidos, el número de alambres y el diámetro de éstos son los factores que más afectan en la transferencia de calor, aumentando entre un 4% y 6% la disipación del calor en el condensador. Finalmente, el paso de los alambres presentó una menor influencia en la transferencia de calor. Neste trabalho, apresenta-se uma simulação teórica da influência dos parâmetros geométricos de um condensador multicamada do tipo tubo-fio por convecção forçada na capacidade térmica. Os parâmetros geométricos estudados foram o diâmetro do fio, o número de fios e o passo do fio. A simulação foi realizada para dois refrigeradores domésticos considerando o mesmo tipo de condensador, porém, utilizando os refrigerantes R134a e R600a. Também foram analisadas diferentes correlações empíricas para o coeficiente de transferência de calor convectivo, adotando-se aquele valor que melhor se ajustava aos dados experimentais anteriores, neste caso a correlação de Zhukauskas. De acordo com os resultados obtidos, o número de fios e o diâmetro foram os fatores que mais afetaram a transferência de calor, aumentando a dissipação de calor no condensador entre 4% e 6%. Por fim, o passo dos fios teve menor influência na transferência de calor.

This article presents a feasibility study of a new polymer-ceramic composite material applied as a thermal insulator on the surface of a low net volume household refrigerator. This paper describes its manufacture in a succinct manner, and a thermal and energy comparison between the factory refrigerator and the refrigerator with the composite installed. Based on the experiments, it is concluded that when using the composite, the average internal temperature of the fridge is increased by 1°C, for practical and design purposes, the refrigerator still functions below 3°C. It was also found that at stable operating conditions the energy consumption using the composite saves approximately 1.5%. Despite these slight savings, the pyro-expanded perlite composite acts as a thermal isolating material. This material may exhibit better ease of use and thermal, energetic and economic benefits, without omitting the environmental characteristics that they favor. Este artículo presenta un estudio de viabilidad de un nuevo material compuesto polímero-cerámico aplicado como aislante térmico sobre una superficie de un refrigerador doméstico de pequeña capacidad volumétrica. Este trabajo describe de manera sucinta su manufactura así como la comparación energética y térmica entre el refrigerador de referencia (cuando sale de fábrica) y el refrigerador con el composite instalado. Experimentalmente, cuando se usa el composite la temperatura interna promedio del frigobar incrementa alrededor de 1°C, que para propósitos prácticos y de diseño, el refrigerador aún funciona por debajo de los 3°C. Además, para condiciones de operación estables, la energía consumida usando el composite ahorra aproximadamente 1.5% en comparación con el refrigerador de referencia. A pesar de este ligero ahorro, la perlita pyro-expandida actúa como material aislante. Este material puede exhibir mejor facilidad de uso y beneficios térmicos, energéticos y económicos, sin omitir las características ambientales a su favor.

[EN] This paper presents a theoretical performance of R1234yf and R152a as possible replacements of R134a in refrigeration systems. The refrigeration system performance using R134a, R1234yf and R152a was carried out for single stage refrigeration system for different evaporating condition ranging from 253 to 283 K and for condensing temperatures of 313 K, 323 K and 333 K holding 5 K as superheating degree and subcooling degree. Refrigerant performance is evaluated using COP, cooling capacity, power consumption and compressor discharge temperature. Results shown that COP increases about 2.47-30.79% using R152a, meanwhile COP decreases about 2.7-18.14% using R1234yf respect to R134a for the condensation and evaporation range studied., [ES] En este artículo se presenta la evaluación del desempeño teórico de los refrigerantes R1234yf y R152a como alternativas al R134a para ciclos de refrigeración. La evaluación se realiza para un ciclo de simple etapa en un rango de temperaturas de evaporación desde 253 K a 283 K y para tres temperaturas de condensación de 313 K, 323 K y 333 K manteniendo un grado de recalentamiento y subenfriamiento de 5 K. El desempeño de los refrigerantes se evalúa a través del COP, carga de refrigeración, potencia consumida por el compresor y temperatura de descarga. Los resultados muestran que utilizando R152a como alternativa al R134a el COP se incrementa entre un 2.46% y un 30.79% para el rango de temperaturas de condensación estudiadas. Mientras que usando el R1234yf se tiene una pérdida de COP alrededor de 2.7-18.14% en comparación con el R134a.

- Abstract
[EN] This work presents a model of a shell-and-tube evaporator using R1234yf and R134a as working fluids. The model uses the effectiveness-NTU method to predict the evaporation pressure and the refrigerant and secondary fluid temperatures at the evaporator outlet, using as inputs the geometry of the evaporator, the refrigerant mass flow rate and evaporator inlet enthalpy, and the secondary fluid volumetric flow rate and evaporator inlet temperature. The model performance is evaluated using different two-phase flow heat transfer correlations through model outputs, comparing predicted and experimental data. The output parameter with maximum deviations between the predicted and experimental data is the evaporating pressure, being the deviations in outlet temperatures less than 3%. The evaporator model using Kandlikar's correlation obtains the highest precision and the lowest absolute mean error, with 4.87% in the evaporating pressure, 0.45% in the refrigerant outlet temperature and 0.03% in the secondary fluid outlet temperature.

Transient behavior of internal heat exchanger during start-up of transcritical refrigeration system is investigated in this article. The work is focused on the local transient analysis of CO2thermophysical properties, in order to see how these transient changes affect the heat transfer rate and the effectiveness of internal heat exchanger, as well as the coefficient of performance during the start-up of the system. The study is conducted through a numerical simulation using the commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software Ansys Fluent. Validation of numerical results is carried out by using seven different empirical correlations applied for the Nusselt number. It is observed that the thermophysical properties of the hot CO2stream experience large changes during the transient period. This instability is accompanied by a decrease in the heat transfer rate. Finally, the change in the internal heat exchanger effectiveness during the start-up results in a loss of about 12% of the coefficient of performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
[EN] This paper presents an experimental analysis of a vapor compression system using R1234yf as a drop-in replacement for R134a. In this work, we compare the energy performance of both refrigerants, R134a and R1234yf, in a monitored vapor compression system under a wide range of working conditions. So, the experimental tests are carried out varying the condensing temperature, the evaporating temperature, the superheating degree, the compressor speed, and the internal heat exchanger use. Comparisons are made taking refrigerant R134a as baseline, and the results show that the cooling capacity obtained with R1234yf in a R134a vapor compression system is about 9% lower than that obtained with R134a in the studied range. Also, when using R1234yf, the system shows values of COP about 19% lower than those obtained using R134a, being the minor difference for higher condensing temperatures. Finally, using an internal heat exchanger these differences in the energy performance are significantly reduced.

- Abstract
[EN] This paper presents a theoretical performance of R1234yf and R152a as possible replacements of R134a in refrigeration systems. The refrigeration system performance using R134a, R1234yf and R152a was carried out for single stage refrigeration system for different evaporating condition ranging from 253 to 283 K and for condensing temperatures of 313 K, 323 K and 333 K holding 5 K as superheating degree and subcooling degree. Refrigerant performance is evaluated using COP, cooling capacity, power consumption and compressor discharge temperature. Results shown that COP increases about 2.47-30.79% using R152a, meanwhile COP decreases about 2.7-18.14% using R1234yf respect to R134a for the condensation and evaporation range studied., [ES] En este artículo se presenta la evaluación del desempeño teórico de los refrigerantes R1234yf y R152a como alternativas al R134a para ciclos de refrigeración. La evaluación se realiza para un ciclo de simple etapa en un rango de temperaturas de evaporación desde 253 K a 283 K y para tres temperaturas de condensación de 313 K, 323 K y 333 K manteniendo un grado de recalentamiento y subenfriamiento de 5 K. El desempeño de los refrigerantes se evalúa a través del COP, carga de refrigeración, potencia consumida por el compresor y temperatura de descarga. Los resultados muestran que utilizando R152a como alternativa al R134a el COP se incrementa entre un 2.46% y un 30.79% para el rango de temperaturas de condensación estudiadas. Mientras que usando el R1234yf se tiene una pérdida de COP alrededor de 2.7-18.14% en comparación con el R134a.

Flow maldistribution represents a problem of particular interest in the engineering field for several thermal systems. In flat plate solar collectors, the thermal efficiency strongly depends on the flow distribution through the riser tubes, where a uniform distribution causes a uniform temperature distribution and therefore a higher efficiency. In this work, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) numerical analysis has been carried out using the commercial software FLUENT
® , in order to determine the flow distribution, pressure drop and hence the thermal efficiency of a solar collector with distribution flow plates inside the manifolds. The obtained numerical solution for this type of thermal systems has been validated with experimental results available in literature for laminar and turbulent flow. Four distribution plate configurations were analyzed. Results show that using two distribution plates in each of both manifolds improves the flow uniformity up to 40% under the same operating conditions when distribution plates are not used. Besides, it is shown that there exists an increase in the overall pressure drop which is practically negligible for the tilt angles commonly employed in the installation of flat plate solar collectors in Mexico. The use of closed end distribution plates on the dividing and combining manifolds allows the thermal efficiency to become close to the ideal thermal efficiency which is obtained with a uniform flow distribution.

Technology & Engineering - Abstract
This work aims at developing a heat exchanger (HEX) sizing approach considering the need to maximize the heat recovery within the limitations of pressure drop and space. The application consists in the recovery of the energy contained in exhaust gases coming from an internal combustion engine (ICE). Two heat exchanger geometries are selected as case studies. The design approach involves the application of design of experiments (DOE) techniques and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. DOE techniques are used to observe the influence of some selected parameters (factors) in the design of the heat exchangers, and CFD simulations are carried out to determine the performance of the heat exchanger. The information obtained is used to determine local Nusselt number correlations that are used for the design of the heat exchangers.
