The problem of condensation of vapors flowing with high velocity around a horizontal tube is solved for the case of isothermal condition of the wall of a condenser tube. The interfacial shear at the vapor condensate film is assessed with the help of Colbum analogy. Extension of these results in the estimation of average condensation heat transfer coefficients is found to be successful. The present theoretical results are further compared with the recent experimental data and the agreement between the two is found to be very satisfactory.

The present theoretical study investigates turbulent film boiling on a tube immersed in the stagnant liquid with saturated temperature. It begins by assuming the case of a variable temperature surface. The non-linear absolute viscosity, thermal conductivity and eddy diffusivity in the vapor film are
A simplified theoretical approach for the prediction of evaporation (nonucleate boiling) heat transfer coefficient in a horizontal tube falling film is proposed. The correlation is derived from an analysis of the thermal boundary layer under the assumption of turbulent flow regime and taking into ac
It is an investigation into turbulent film condensation on a horizontal tube. In order to forecast the results more exactly, a new theory model of local film shear stress (ฯ / ฯ w ) is presented in the paper. In the study, four models of different eddy diffusivity are considered. The numerical calcu
