Accurate simulations of frosting on fin-and-tube heat exchanger surfaces are necessary for designing heat exchangers with frosting.
“Previous experimental and theoretical investigations of frosting [1-5] have shown that accurate simulations of frosting on fin-and-tube heat exchanger surfaces are necessary for designing heat exchangers with frosting.”
From Numerical Simulation of Frosting on Fin-and-Tube Heat Exchanger Surfaces (2017) · cites this paper as [4]
The frost mass of horizontal fins was greater than that of vertical fins.
“In addition, the frost mass of horizontal fins was greater than that of vertical fins.”
More frost accumulated in angled fins than in aligned fins, and more frost was observed near the edge than in the middle of the fins.
“According to the results, more frost accumulated in the angled fins than in the aligned fins, and more frost was observed near the edge than in the middle of the fins.”
For multiple lines and columns of fins, the frontal fins had the most frost due to the edge effect.
“For multiple lines and columns of fins, the frontal fins had the most frost due to the edge effect.”
On a set of flat fins, the amount of frost accumulated in the first row is the largest and that in the last row the second largest.
“By contrast, Wu et al. [143]carried out a similar investigation and reported that the amount of frost accumulated in the first row was the largest and that in the last row the second largest.”

The air flow field may have a significant effect on the frosting behaviors on set of fins.
“Therefore, it can be concluded that the air flow field may have a significant effect on the frosting behaviors on set of fins.”

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.
