Abstract
An experimental investigation has been carried out to find the condensing side heat transfer coefficient, h o, during condensation of steam over a plain tube, a circular integral-fin tube(CIFT) and a spine integral-fin tube(SIFT). The CIFT and SIFT have enhanced the h o by a factor of 2.5 and 3.2 respectively. The experimental values of h o for CIFT were compared with those predicted from different models. The Honda and Nozu model underpredicted the values of h o in a range of 10 to 20 percent.
