Abstract

Experimental data of the heat transfer coefficient during annular flow condensation of steam inside a horizontal tube are presented and compared with the data on vertical downflow condensation and analytical predictions presented so far. Based on an ideal annular flow model, a method for predicting the heat transfer coefficient is proposed for both horizontal flow and vertical downflow.
