Performance evaluation of a plate type condenser for heat pump water heater

This study deals with an application of blazed plate heat exchangers to a condenser used in a heat pump water heater. The heat transfer performance was experimentally evaluated by using a pump driven two-phase flow loop in the operating condition for water heating at the environmental temperature. T...
