This report proposes an improved condensation heat transfer method for corrugated channels in plate heat exchangers, based on n-pentane condensation data collected in a welded plate heat exchanger. The generalized method is applicable to all corrugated channels in different types of plate heat exchangers, such as plate-and-frame and  plate-and-shell heat exchangers.
