Steam condenser at 0.08132 bar is arranged to condense over a 60 cm square vertical surface. The surface temperature is maintained at 28°C. Calculate the following :
(a) Film thickness, local heat transfer coefficient and mean flow velocity of the condensate at 30 cm from the top of the plate.
(b) Average heat transfer coefficient and total heat transfer from the entire plate.
(c) Total steam condensation rate.
(d) What would be the heat transfer coefficient, if the plate is inclined at 30 degree with the horizontal plane ?
