Research on corrugated multi‐louvered fins under dehumidification
Abstract
To enhance automotive evaporator wet‐fin performances, the main task is to promote the draining of condensed water. An accurate and convenient apparatus estimating the fin performances has been developed. Through the measurement of corrugated multi‐louvered fin performances and the visualization of condensed water draining by this apparatus, it was clarified that fin geometries, surface coating, and evaporator installation strongly contributed to the efficiency of draining and fin performances. © 2001 Scripta Technica, Heat Trans Asian Res, 30(5): 383–393, 2001

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
When louver length was small (Ll ≤ 9.2 mm), water was pushed by airflow forces to the airflow exit region and accumulated there until drained by gravity.
“when the louver length was small ( Ll ≤ 9 . 2 mm ), the water was pushed by airflow forces to the airflow exit region and accumulated there until it was drained by gravity.”
Increasing louver length significantly improves the drainage of MCHX.
“Increasing the louver length will significantly improve the drainage of MCHX.”
When louver length was large (Ll ≥ 9.5 mm), the water removal pattern shifted from the outlet region to the core region of the heat exchanger.
“When the louver length was large ( Ll ≥ 9 . 5 mm ), the water removal pattern shifts from the outlet region to the core region of the heat exchanger.”
Forward inclination significantly improved the drainage and thermal performance of MCHX.
“They claimed that forward inclination significantly improved the drainage and thermal performance of MCHX.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
