Two Phase Flow Maldistribution in Parallel Channels of Evaporators

The performance of thermal devices such as
evaporators is greatly affected due to flow mal-
distribution in the parallel channels. There is
inherent flow mal-distribution in manifolds
involving single-phase flow which is a result of non-
uniformity of the pressure drop across each lateral
channel. This will even be more complicated when the
flow involves two phase, which is often the case in
refrigerant flow of multi-pass evaporators, since
there is gravity ind ...
