Compact Heat Exchangers by Kays and London. Another book which is widely prescribed in these forums, but I didn't have my hands on, is Heat Exchangers : Thermal-Hydraulic Fundamentals and Design by Sadic Kakac.

I am not sure if this is what you need, however I would first recommend referring to the "ASHRAE Handbook Refrigeration":

Additionally, I often refer to the "Trane Air Conditioning Manual":
