Books on Evaporators

[jamesk]

Hello,

Are there any books devoted to the Evaporator of a refrigeration sys?

I have a project 'Solar Powered Refrigeration, performance investigation and optimisation', so i have to select a system or part of it and see how well it works and improve it. I want to focus on the evaporator, i see it as a part which can be easily changed to show results, also i think the calculations to show how the heat trasfer rates are affected with a change in evaporator dimensions/material can be easily carried out.

Any advice on the subject or useful links or books will help me a lot,, i feel this subject is soo hard to improve,, i wish i would have just said i will come up with a completely new refrigerator,, i think it would have been easier.
Kindly reply with all your knowledge, thank you

No short answers to your question, comes down the effective surface area, temperature differentials and heat coefficient factors.

That has helped me, at least it has broken it down a bit more. Might have covered them before but will know to give them closer attention now. cheers
