Evaluation of fin staging methods for minimizing coil frost accumulation /

Frost formation on heat pump evaporators is a source of degradation in the performance of heat pumps during heating mode operation. This research sought to determine whether staged fins on outdoor evaporators could slow the growth of frost on the fins and improve heat pump frosting/defrosting perfo...
