Abstract
A numerical analysis was carried out to study the detailed heat and mass transfer processes between a condensation liquid film and mixed turbulent moist airflow. Results show that the condensation latent heat transfer is more important for a system with higher inlet relative humidity or lower inlet Reynolds number of a moist airstream. The heat and mass transfer coefficients are higher for a system with higher inlet relative humidity and inlet Reynolds number of moist air. In addition, the aiding-buoyancy forces cause diminution in heat and mass transfer results compared with the corresponding results of forced convection.
