local.description.resumoThis work concerns theorical and experimental methods for understanding the heat transfer mechanisms for a zeotropic fluid, namely R-407C. The refrigerant R-407C is a mixture of three refrigerants, R-134a, R-32, and R-125, which may replace R-22 in future refrigerant systems. Due to the degradation of heat transfer coefficients in mixtures such as R-407C, the classical relations may overestimate the experimental heat transfer rates. A correction based on nucleate boiling suppression factors that corrects a previously proposed relation is used to minimize the degradation error. The newly proposed relation was developed through a robust methodology based on genetic algorithm (GA) optimization for three additional refrigerants R-404a, R134a and R-22. A discussion about inventory is also presented, where a modified Otaki method is proposed for the more realistic scenario that corresponds of not knowing a priori the heat transfer coefficient. The inventory obtained by the modified Otaki method is higher than the one obtained by the traditional Otaki method. Both methods yield accurate results for R-407C.
