This question requires the use of the steam property tables (Rogers and Mayhew). All properties should be evaluated at the temperature of the steam.
Saturated, pure steam at a temperature of 170 oC condenses on the outer surface of a vertical tube of outer diameter 2 cm and length 1.5 m. The tube surface is maintained at a uniform temperature of 150 oC.
Calculate:
* a)the local film condensation heat-transfer coefficient at the bottom of the tube.
* b)the average condensation heat-transfer coefficient over the entire length of the tube.
* c) the total condensation rate at the tube surface.
