Internal Condensing Flows Inside a Vertical Pipe: Experimental/Computational Investigations of Effects of Constrained and Natural Exit Conditions

Abstract: The flow and heat transfer rates inside a condenser depend on the specification of inlet, wall, and exit conditions. For steady/quasi-steady internal condensing flows (that involve compressible vapor at low Mach Numbers), the vapor’s ability to change its density — and hence interfacial mass transfer rates and associated locations of the interface — allows the flow to have a rather significant dependence on exit conditions. Both experimental and direct computational simulation results presented here show that … Show more

“…through the arrangement in Fig. 3 of [3], a range of _ M v = _ M in values is available at the exit), or (b) a constrained or prescribed exit condition, which may arise from downstream constraints in the flow loop or by active downstream flow control (e.g. a specific value of _ M v = _ M in at the exit is prescribed through the arrangement in Fig.…”
