The lab will be used to study refrigerant characteristics
RICHMOND, Va. — Minnesota-based heat exchanger manufacturer Super Radiator Coils announced the opening of its new Heat Transfer Lab. Designed to determine the tube-side heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of refrigerants under single-phase convective flow and condensation conditions, the lab will be used to test both single-part refrigerants and various refrigerant blends.
The refrigerant data collected from the new lab will be paired with SRC's existing wind tunnel test laboratory data, providing engineers with a more comprehensive thermal performance model.
