TLDR
In this paper, the effects of vapor velocity, liquid loading, and physicai properties of the fluid on the condensing coefficient of a vapor in a horizontal tube were investigated, and the data, presented in graphs, were obtained in tests in which the aversge condensing coefficients was determined as a function of the mass flow of the vapor in the tube at constant tube wall temperature and constant pressure.

Mirza M. Shah
- 01 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: An improved version of the authors's published correlation (Shah 1979), extended to a wider range of parameters, is presented in this article, which is shown to be in good agreement with data ranging from highly turbulent flows to the laminar flow conditions of Nusselt's analytical solutions.

Condensation of Halogenated Refrigerants Inside Smooth Tubes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a new predicting model to compute the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop during condensation inside smooth tubes when operating with pure or blended halogenated refrigerants, including the new high-pressure HFC fluids, for which the existing predicting methods are inadequate.
