    USing EES to calculate the dryness of the refrigeratant R600a flowing in a capillary



    moring to all!
    I've recently used EES to simulate the flowing of R600a in a capillary.And I find that using the correlation: A=0.719*B^0.403*C^-0.590*D^0.157 can causing a quite big diviation up to 35% from the experimental data. However the correlation is conclude from the experimental data and the author declared that the bias was within 10%. So I want to know if anyone have similar experience? The article is <An experimental analysis of adiabatic capillary tubes>. The after is my EES code:

    module getm_ch(L_cap,D_cap,P_in,DELTAT_sc,m_h)
    T_f=temperature(Isobutane,p=p_in,x=0)
    T_sc=T_f-DELTAT_sc
    mu_f=viscosity(Isobutane,P=P_in,T=T_sc)
    v_f=volume(Isobutane,P=P_in,T=T_sc)
    c_pf=specheat(Isobutane,P=P_in,T=T_sc)
    A=m/(D_cap*mu_f)
    B=D_cap^2*p_in/(v_f*mu_f^2)
    C=L_cap/D_cap
    D=D_cap^2*c_pf*DELTAT_sc/(v_f^2*mu_f^2)

    A=0.719*B^0.403*C^(-0.590)*D^0.157

    m_h=m*convert(kg/s,kg/h)
    "结果输出"
    END

    call getm_ch(2.926,0.00077,721000,4.2,m)
    call getm_ch(2.926,0.00077,923000,3.7,m1)
    call getm_ch(2.926,0.00077,1119000,15.7,m2)

    To addition, the correlation and code are all to calculate the choked mass flow-rate in the capillary under certain conditions.
