Experimental investigations established the performance characteristics of CO2 gas coolers. CFD modelling is able to adequately represent the heat transfer characteristics of gas coolers. A horizontal slit fin can improve gas cooler performance by 7%. Refrigerant side heat transfer coefficient varies significantly along the tubes of the gas cooler. Variation of refrigerant side heat transfer coefficient should be taken into account in gas cooler design and modelling.
