TT-23 Specifying tubeside or shellside reflux condensers in Xist
January 26, 2017
Component: Xist Date posted: 23 January 2017 (tubeside reflux only) Last updated: 12 May 2025 Tubeside or shellside reflux condensers (also called knockback, vent, or dephlegmator condensers) allow vapor to enter and condensate to exit at the bottom of the unit. Noncondensed vapor exits at the top of the unit....

TT-15 Condensing heat transfer across inline low-finned tube bundles in cross flow
January 26, 2017
Component: Xace, Xist Date posted: 22 May 2012 Last updated: 7 August 2024 Externally finned tube bundles can be specified for condensing applications where the outside heat transfer coefficient is less than the inside coefficient and where the shellside thermal resistance dominates. Although condensing applications with inline low-finned tubes are rare,...

Research Update: Crossflow Mixed Convection Heat Transfer for Horizontal Tube Banks
January 16, 2017
This webinar reviews measurement of mixed convection heat transfer using liquids in crossflow over ideal horizontal plain and low-finned tube banks. We identify when natural convection may enhance or penalize crossflow heat transfer and recommend new calculations to improve HTRI software predictions....
