Renewable energy or low grade energy utilizations need high performance of phase change heat exchangers. Suspending micromembrane cylinder in tube(called modulated heat transfer tube) increases the void fractions or vapor qualities near the tube wall to significantly enhance heat transfer. The R123 condensation heat transfer with horizontal position was investigated. The results for the bare tube and modulated heat transfer tube were tested case by case. It is found that the modulated heat transfer tube significantly enhance the condensation heat transfer, with the heat transfer enhancement factors(EF)covering the range of 1.118–2.124. The comprehensive performance evaluation criteria(PEC) had the range of0.71–1.66, with most of runs behaving PEC larger than 1.0.For the two-phase outlet conditions, the EF values are increased with increases in the vapor mass fluxes, Gxin,where G is the mass flux and xinis the inlet vapor mass quality. The EF values are inversely related to Gxinfor the subcooled liquid outlet cases. The enhanced heat transfer mechanisms are analyzed with the observed images together with the discussion of pressure and velocity distributions.
