HEAT TRANSFER AND TWO-PHASE FLOW DURING SHELL-SIDE CONDENSATION.

Author(s) : MARTO P. J.

Type of article: Article

Summary

THIS PAPER SURVEYS THE EVOLUTION OF POWER CONDENSER TUBE BUNDLE ARRANGEMENTS AND CONDENSATION HEAT TRANSFER DURING SHELL-SIDE FLOW IS REVIEWED, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF VAPOR SHEAR, CONDENSATE INUNDATION, NONCONDENSABLE GASES, AND ENHANCEMENT TECHNIQUES. THE DIFFICULTIES EXPERIENCED IN CALCULATING VAPOUR PRESSURE DROP THROUGH TUBE BUNDLES ARE DESCRIBED, AS WELL AS RECENT ATTEMPTS TO OBTAIN MORE RELIABLE CORRELATIONS. THE MODELLING OF THESE PHENOMENA TO PREDICT SHELL-SIDE CONDENSER PERFORMANCE IS REVIEWED.
