Numerical Analysis of the Influence of Low Frequency Vibration on Bubble Growth

May 2, 2017

Author(s)

Dong Han, Mark A. Kedzierski

Numerical simulation of bubble growth during pool boiling under the influence of low frequency vibration was done to understand the influence of common vibrations such as those induced by wind, highway transportation, and nearby mechanical devices on the

A Fluorescence Based Measurement Technique to Quantify Water Contaminants at Pipe Surfaces During Flow

March 31, 2017

Author(s)

Mark A. Kedzierski

This paper provides a detailed account of the development of a fluorescence based measurement technique for measuring the mass of contaminant on solid surfaces in the presence of water flow. A test apparatus was designed and developed for the purpose of

Horizontal Convective Boiling of R448A, R449A, and R452B within a Micro-Fin Tube

August 3, 2016

Author(s)

Mark A. Kedzierski, Donggyu Kang

This paper presents local convective boiling measurements in a micro-fin tube for three low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants: R448A, R449A, and R452B . An existing correlation was modified to predict multi-component mixtures, which predicted 98

May 12, 2016

Author(s)

Mark A. Kedzierski, Donggyu Kang

This report presents local convective boiling measurements in a micro-fin tube for three low global warming potential (GWP ) refrigerants: R448A, R449A, and R452B as possible replacements for R404A. Water heating either in counterflow or in parallel flow

Performance Ranking of Refrigerants With Low Global Warming Potential

January 7, 2015

Author(s)

Mark A. Kedzierski, J S. Brown, Junemo Koo

This paper evaluates in a typical air-conditioner the cycle performance of thirty-nine refrigerants identified in the AHRI Low Global Warming Potential (GWP) Alternative Refrigerants Evaluation Program (Low-GWP AREP). The Low-GWP AREP was initiated in
