the air. Taking into account the large differences of values between αair and<br />

αlf coefficients and the lowest values obtained on the air flow, research has to be<br />

focused on increasing their values in order to increase the overall heat transfer<br />

coefficient. The research performed on the vaporizer turns out that an air flow<br />

velocity increasing is a solution up to a certain value and then the increasing<br />

slope of the heat exchange is negligible.<br />

The two curves were built for different ambient conditions, respectively<br />

28.4 and 22 o C. Measurements to determine the air flow were performed using a<br />

Kimo-type thermo-anemometer provided by ICMET Craiova. There were<br />

measured air temperatures at the vaporizer entry and exit, and the air flow
