The effect of a novel coating technique on filmwise and dropwise condensation of steam on horizontal tubes

The effect of a novel coating technique on filmwise and dropwise condensation of steam on horizontal tubes

Steam condensation heat transfer on smooth horizontal tubes and on a Korodense horizontal tube was experimentally studied at atmospheric pressure and at vacuum. The overall heat transfer coefficient was measured and the outside heat transfer coefficient was determined from the modified Wilson Plot T...
