Experimental Investigation of Overall Heat Transfer Coefficientin Drop wise Condensation
Abstract: The experiments are performed to study the heat transfer characteristics over a drop wise condensation. The phenomenon of drop wise condensation is in which the condensate forms into drops rather than covering the entire cooling surface with a continuous film. In drop wise condensation, heat transfer coefficient produced is 2 to 10 times greater than those produced by film wise condensation. Hence drop wise condensation is desirable as it is …
