An Experimental Study on Frost Generation Mechanism from Evaporator Tube in Air Conditioning System

이 실험의 목적은 튜브형 증발관에서 입구 공기 속도, 온도와 상대 습도에 따른 서리층 생성의 비교 검토에 있다. 입구 공기 속도와 온도는 각각 $0.3^m/_s,\;0.6^m/_s,\;0.9^m/_s,\;15^{\circ}C,\;20^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C$로 하였고, 상대 습도는 $70\%\~90\%$로 하였다. 그리고 일반적인 공조기용 열교환기에서의 서리발생 현상을 파악하기 위하여 냉각튜브의 온도를 $-15^{\circ}C$로 일정하게 유지하였다. 그 결과 공급공기의 상대습도, 유속 및 온도가 증가할수록 서리 생성량이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. The object qf this experiment was the evaluation of the growth rate of frost layer conditioned by inlet air's velocity, temperature and relative humidity on the copper tube in evaporator. In this experiment, the inlet air's velocity were $0.3^m/_s,\;0.6^m/_s,\;0.9^m/_s,$ temperature were $15^{\circ}C,\;20^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C$ and the variation of relative humidity was $70\%~90\%$. And the brine temperature flowing through the copper tubes was kept $-15{\circ}C$ because generally cooling temperature range is constantly $-15^{\circ}C$ in the heat exchanger for air conditioning system It was found that the amount of frost generation increased so that the relative humidity, velocity and temperature of supply air increased.
