Summary

The paper explores a model for calculating the behaviour of the departing drops on an inclined tube and to examine the heat transfer characteristics. The authors have found that the heat transfer associated with both the sweeping and covering actions by the departing drops has its maximum at an inclination angle of the condensing tube of 30 deg.
