TL;DR: A boundary-layer analysis of laminar film condensation on a vertical plate has been carried out to study the effects of superheated vapor and non-condensable gases as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: A boundary-layer analysis of laminar film condensation on a vertical plate has been carried out to study the effects of superheated vapor and noncondensable gases. For a pure, superheated vapor the effects of superheating on the surface heat transfer are accounted for by a simple modification of previously available results for saturated vapors. For a given temperature difference between the plate surface and the liquid-vapor interface, superheating increases the heat transfer to the surface, but only to a modest extent for most practical situations. Although free convection was not included in the analysis, its role has been estimated to be small. For noncondensable gases the analysis shows that the presence of a few per cent of noncondensable in the bulk of the vapor causes a great reduction in the surface heat transfer. The fact that the predicted reduction is substantially larger than that found experimentally indicates that free convection, which is not included in the analysis, plays an important role when noncondensables are present.

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis for a two-component laminar boundary layer on a surface with zero pressure gradient and with mass release is presented, where the system of partial differential equations describing the velocity, temperature, and concentration field is converted by a similarity transformation into a system of integral equations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-inch O.D. circular cylinder with porous walls fabricated out of a stainless steel woven wire mesh was aligned with its axis parallel to a low speed air stream.
Abstract: : A two-inch O.D. circular cylinder with porous walls fabricated out of a stainless steel woven wire mesh was aligned with its axis parallel toA LOW SPEED AIR STREAM. Secondary air was injected through the cylinder walls into the boundary layer at a uniform mass rate per unit area of outside cylinder surface in the range 0.00028 to .00290 of the free stream mass velocity. The boundary layer was turbulent. The heat transfer distribution along the cylinder was measured and is presented as a functional relationship between local Stanton number and Reynolds number with the injection rate as a parameter. Up to about one half reduction in heat transfer compared with zero injection resulted. A macroscopic energy balance at one injection rate was made on three portions of the model by appropriate boundary layer velocity and temperature surveys. Its results provided a satisfactory check on the heat transfer measurements. (Author)
