What is Heat Transfer Coefficient for Condensation Inside Tubes?

Heat Transfer Coefficient for Condensation Inside Tubes is the heat transfer coefficient when the vapors gets condensed into liquid phase in to the surface of tubes in a shell and tube heat exchanger. The Condenser orientation in such process is vertical positioning and the vapors are allowed to condense over the internal surface of the tubes present. The Vapors that condenses in such orientation, makes their contact with the internal perimeter of the tubes thus the inner periphery is taken into considerations.
