Abstract
Laminar film condensation of binary vapour mixtures in forced flow along a horizontal or down a vertical flat plate is presented. The complete system of partial differential equations is numerically integrated using a finite-difference method of Hermitian type. Firstly, heat transfer results are presented. Additionally, interface characteristics such as tangential and normal velocity components are reported, which sheds some light on their axial distribution as well as on the liquid-side Reynolds number. Secondly, the effect of a linearly varied wall temperature, compared to the isothermal case, is investigated in terms of heat transfer to the wall and interface velocities.
