Best Answer

There are two very different types of condenser, the electronic component, and the physical apparatus as used in distillation.

The electronic device is more usually called a capacitor, and consists of two conducting plates, separated by an insulating medium.

The physical apparatus is your common condenser, in which a cold surface is used to condense liquid from a vapour.

How are steam condensers classified?

Two broad types of condensers are: (i) Direct contact type condensers; where the condensate and cooling water directly mix and come out as a single stream. (ii) surface condensers; which are shell and tube type heat exchangers where the two fluids do not come in direct contact and heat released by the condensation of steam is transferred through the walls of the tubes in to the cooling water continuously circulating inside them


Why do some condensers have to be cleaned with brushes and others with chemicals?

Why you called a capacitor as a condenser?

Capacitors were first called Condensers by Alessandro Volta in 1782 when he discovered that the device had the ability to store a higher density of electric charge than a normal isolated conductor.The name was changed to capacitor after 1926 to avoid confusion with other types of condensers, like those on steam engines. Exactly who coined this new term has been lost
