Working Principle
The Vertical & Horizontal Condenser apparatus operates on the principle of condensation of steam in shell-and-tube heat exchangers:
-
Cold fluid flow: Cold water flows through stainless steel tubes.
-
Steam condensation: Hot steam passes through the shell surrounding the tubes.
-
Heat transfer: Heat is transferred from the steam to the cold water inside the tubes, causing the steam to condense.
-
Condensate collection: Condensed steam is collected in a measuring cylinder through the steam traps.
-
Temperature measurement: Sensors record the temperature of the inlet and outlet of both hot and cold fluids, allowing calculation of overall heat transfer coefficient and film coefficient.
By comparing vertical and horizontal orientations, users can study how orientation affects condensation efficiency and heat transfer rates.
