Summary

THIS PAPER REVIEWS AND DISCUSSES THE STATE OF THE ART IN DESIGN METHODS FOR MULTICOMPONENT CONDENSATION AND BOILING. IN MULTICOMPONENT CONDENSATION, A RANGE OF METHODS OF VARYING COMPLEXITY ARE AVAILABLE TO CALCULATE THE LOCAL HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER RATES ; THE COMPLEXITY DEPENDS ON THE DETAILS WITH WHICH THE MASS TRANSFER RESISTANCES ARE CALCULATED. RESEARCH WORK HAS BEEN MAINLY CONCENTRATED ON UNDERSTANDING THE DYNAMICS OF BUBBLE GROWTH ; HEAT TRANSFER CALCULATIONS ARE DONE USING EMPIRICAL CORRECTIONS TO COEFFICIENTS CALCULATED FOR PURE FLUIDS. IN CONCLUSION, POSSIBLE DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS ARE OFFERED AND IT IS SUGGESTED THAT, ALTHOUGH CONDENSATION AND BOILING HEAT TRANSFER IN MIXTURES HAVE HITHERTO BEEN STUDIED SEPARATELY, A COMBINED RESEARCH APPROACH MAY PRODUCE FURTHER ADVANCES.
