Surface condenser is a heat exchanger in which latent heat only absorbed by the cooling media and heat exchange mostly takes place on availble just surface of the tube bundle.

Overhead condenses is also a heat exchanger in which latent heat and somewhat sensible heat also removed from the fluid

What is the purpose of the fins on the condenser?

The fins on the condenser increase the surface area available for heat transfer. This helps to efficiently dissipate heat from the refrigerant as it flows through the condenser coils, allowing it to cool down and change state from a gas to a liquid.


What is reason for low vacuum in surface condenser?

Reasons for low vacuum: 1. Low gland sealing pressure 2. Condenser tubes choked 3. Condenser cooling water temperature high 4. Leakage in condenser tubes 5. Less cooling water flow


What is the difference between liquids with high surface tension and liquids with low surface tension?

Liquids with high surface tension have stronger forces between their molecules at the surface, causing them to form droplets and resist spreading. Liquids with low surface tension have weaker forces, allowing them to spread out more easily and wet surfaces.


At what height in kilometers above the surface of the Earth is there a 4 percent difference between the approximate gravitational force mg and the actual gravitational force on an object?

What is the Formula for calculating heat transfer by convection?

The formula for calculating heat transfer by convection is: Q = h * A * ΔT, where Q is the heat transfer rate, h is the convection heat transfer coefficient, A is the surface area, and ΔT is the temperature difference between the surface and the surrounding fluid.

Why in distillation water evaporates from the condenser?

In distillation, water evaporates from the condenser due to a difference in temperature between the hot vapor coming from the boiling flask and the cold surface of the condenser. This temperature difference causes the water vapor to condense into liquid form on the condenser surface, resulting in the separation and collection of the distilled water.

What is difference between trail and road surface for running?

The difference between trail and road surface for running is that trail is usually dirt roads as opposed to tarred (tarmac) surfaces associated with road surfaces.


What is the difference between roughness and flatness?

The difference between roughness and flatness is that one, flatness, is the shape of an object. Roughness is the surface or texture of an object.


What will happen if vacuum in surface condenser is very high?

If the vacuum in the surface condenser it very high, it results in higher practical thermal efficiency. It is important for you to keep the temperature to 100 Celsius or lower for it to work properly.
