Hydrodynamic characteristics of liquid films in downward motion on the outer surface of fluted tubes have been inuestigated theoretically. Velocity distribution, volumetric flow rate and friction factor are calculated from the solution of the equation of motion using bi-polar coordinate system. The

A numerical study of steam condensation over horizontal fluted tubes is presented. Condensate is driven by surface tension to the groove valley where it is drained by gravity. From the bottom to the top the groove domain is divided into a valley section, crest section with large variations of cond
Film condensation of stagnant water vapor on both vertical and horizontal spir~ly fluted robes was studied theoretically. A sine flute was taken as a typical example. In the analysis two regions of the flute, namely the valley and the crest, are treated separately. The condensation process takes pla
