An analysis of smooth and axially finned, rotating heat pipe condensers.
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1983-06)
A mathematical model is developed to determine the heat
transfer rate of a cylindrical condenser section of a rotating
heat pipe. This model is coupled to an existing code and an
analysis is accomplished on both a smooth ...
Condensation heat transfer of steam on a single horizontal tube
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1983-06)
An experimental apparatus was designed, constructed and instrumented in an effort to
systematically and carefully study the condensation heat-transfer coefficient on a single, horizontal tube. A smooth, thick-walled ...
An experimental investigation of the effect of condensate inundation on heat transfer in a horizontal tube bundle.
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1980-03)
A test facility to evaluate the effect of condensate inundation on heat transfer within a horizontal tube bundle was designed, constructed and validated. Five 15.9 mm (5/8 in.) nominal outside diameter, smooth stainless ...
Film condensation of steam on low-integral finned tubes with drainage strips
(1986-12)
Heat-transfer measurements were made for filmwise condensation of steam under low pressure and at near-atmosphere pressure on horizontal finned tubes attached with bronze porous and solid drainage strips. The effect of ...
Endurance and heat - transfer performance of polymer coatings for the promotion of dropwise condensation of steam.
(1984-12); NPS-69-84-015
Ten polymer coatings were evaluated for the long term
promotion of dropwise condensation of steam. Four of the
coatings were experimental coatings developed by the Naval
Research Laboratory and six were commercial ...
Filmwise condensation of steam on low integral-finned tubes
(1984-09); NPS-69-84-008
Filmwise condensation heat-transfer measurements if steam were made on horizontal tubes under vacuum and near-atmospheric pressures. Data were taken for a smooth tube and for 21 tubes which contained rectangularly-shaped, ...
The effect of condensate inundation on condensation heat transfer in tube bundles of marine condensers
(1980)
Experiments, under different conditions, were conducted
to evaluate the effect of condensate inundation on condensation
heat transfer in tube bundles of marine condensers. Five 15.9
mm. (5/8 in) nominal outside diameter, ...
Film condensation of steam on externally finned horizontal tubes
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1985-03); NPS 69-85-002
Filmwise condensation measurements of steam were made on horizontal finned tubes under vacuum and near-atmospheric conditions. Data were obtained for copper tubes with fins of rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal, and ...
The effect of condensate inundation on steam condensation heat transfer in a tube bundle
(1985-06)
Steam-condensation heat-transfer measurements were made
using a 5-tube in-line test condenser with an additional
perforated tube to simulate up to 30 active tubes. Results
were obtained for smooth tubes, wire-wrapped ...
Nucleate pool boiling performance of finned and high flux tube bundles in R-114/oil mixtures
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1989-12)
The heat transfer characteristics of pure R-114 and R-114/oil
mixtures during nucleate pool boiling from a small bundle of finned
and High Flux tubes were measured. The bundles had 5 instrumented
and 10 additional heated ...
