Film condensation of water in a vertical tube with countercurrent vapour flow.

Summary

Heat transfer with film condensation in vertical pipes is influenced by the vapour flow usually occurring in practical applications. If vapour flows countercurrently to the liquid, the liquid is obstructed by the shear stress acting at the interface. Such conditions prevail in reflux condensers, in rectification systems, in open surface columns and particularly in gravitation heat pipes or thermosiphons. The phenomenons are investigated in this article.
