Dimensionless correlations of frost properties on a cold cylinder surface

![]() International Journal of Refrigeration, Volume 28, Issue 4, June 2005, Pages 538-546 Pedro J. Mago, S.A. Sherif Abstract In this paper a semi-empirical model describing heat and mass transfer on a cold surface in humid air under supersaturated frosting conditions is presented. The lack of psychrometric data in the supersaturated zone of the psychrometric chart has historically impeded the ability of researchers to accurately predict heat and mass transfer in supersaturated air. The work described in this paper has been partially made possible by developing a systematic procedure to compute the properties of supersaturated air, especially in the low temperature zone of the psychrometric chart. Development of such a capability will allow us to predict the amount of frost collected, the frost deposition and heat transfer rates, frost thickness and surface temperature, and other important parameters. 810f9882c&ie=/sdarticle.pdf" target="newPdfWin" onClick="var newWidth=((document.body.clientWidth*90)/100); var newHeight=document.body.clientHeight; var pdfWin; pdfWin=window.open('','newPdfWin','width='+newWidth+',height='+newHeight+',resizable=yes, left=50, top=50');pdfWin.focus()"> ![]() |
