This study examines wetting behaviour and evaporation heat transfer of a falling liquid film inside a circular tube carrying grooves at its internal surface. The experiments include five different structures (four helical, one longitudinal) and one smooth tube (Cu, di≈27mm) with counter-current flow of liquid (downwards) and vapour (upwards). Results are obtained for liquid propane films (Pr=2.79, Resmooth tube=160?645) at different twisting angles and height of the grooves, tube inclination angles (β=0°?20° from the vertical), mass flow rates (from 5kg/h up to 20kg/h) and driving temperature differences (2K, 3K and 4K) mainly at a film inlet temperature of 293.15K. For wetting behaviour investigations the liquid film is visually observed at the lower end of the tube. The experiments reveal that the internal structures used lead to a strong improvement in both wetting behaviour and heat transfer, even up to inclination angles of 20°. The amount of capillary transported liquid within the grooves coupled with groove geometry itself are the main impacts on wetting behaviour and will be discussed within this paper.
