Heat- and mass-transfer analysis for the condensing film flow along a vertical grooved tube.

Author(s) : PARK I. S., CHOI D. H.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The results show that most of the condensation is seen to take place on the bare portion of the groove surface and that clearly demonstrates how the heat transfer is enhanced by the grooved surface. The results are presented for various groove densities and operating conditions. The optimum groove number appears to vary with the temperature difference of the two sides. The effect of the surface tension is also discussed.
