Dropwise And Filmwise Condensation Apparatus

Product Description

Dropwise & Filmwise Condensation Apparatus:

Micro Teknik

Description:

• Condensation is a phase change heat transfer process occurring in many industrial applications, such as in steam power plants, refrigeration plants etc.
• Thus this is one of the important heat transfer process as present in mechanical and chemical engineering applications.
• The condensation of vapour on a surface is of two types: 1. Drop wise Condensation, 2. Film wise Condensation.
• This setup is designed for determining heat transfer co-efficient of two types of condensation and for visualization of these processes.
• It consists of a vertical frame. Condensation tubes are fitted inside compact glass cylinder.
• Steam generator is fitted at the backside of the cylinder. Steam comes directly from generator to the cylinder.
• Digital Temperature Indicator monitors the temperatures.
• Pressure gauge and Rotameter can observe steam pressure and cold water flow rates respectively
• A Digital temperature Controller is provided for controlling the temperature of Steam.
