Abstract:

We have evaluated our methods using recently collected inclined downflow condensation data. In this report, we present a new pressure drop method for inclined intube condensation and offer improvements to the two-phase friction, momentum, and static head pressure drop correlations. Current methods in HTRI Xchanger Suite do not predict inclined intube condensation pressure drop well.
