CG-13 Modeling Spray Condensers
December 20, 2023
This report reviews and evaluates literature methods for modeling spray condensers. It discusses droplet size, distribution, motion, and mass and heat transfer in a hot vapor stream. The methods in the literature are sufficient for modeling spray condensation of a single component without a noncondensable gas. Limited research on spray condensation of...

Case study: Reducing shellside maldistribution in a condenser
October 16, 2018
Summary An engineering, procurement, and construction company asked HTRI to investigate methods—constrained by permissible pressure drop—to mitigate shellside flow maldistribution for an X-shell condenser, using cold seawater on the tube side to condense an off-gas on the shell side. Challenge Determine optimal geometric design modifications that minimize maldistribution and potential structural...

TT-7 Model flooding for horizontal tubeside condensers
January 26, 2017
Component: Xist Applicable to: All supported versions (Versions 7.3 and 8) Date posted: 7 October 2008 Although Xist does not include an option to specify the flooded condensate level for horizontal tubeside condensers, you can use Xist results to determine the flooded condensate level in the channel head using only one...
