Natural convection air-cooled condensers
In natural convection air-cooled condenser, the heat transfer from the condenser coils to the air is by natural convection. As the air comes in contact with the warm condenser tubes, it absorbs heat from the refrigerant, and thus the temperature of the air increases. The warm air, being lighter, rises up and the cold air from below rises to take away the heat from the condenser.
How to Calculate Mean Surface area of Tube when Heat transfer takes place from outside to inside surface of tube?
Mean Surface area of Tube when Heat transfer takes place from outside to inside surface of tube calculator uses Surface Area = (Heat Transfer*Tube Thickness)/(Thermal Conductivity*(Outside Surface Temperature-Inside Surface temperature)) to calculate the Surface Area, The Mean Surface area of Tube when Heat transfer takes place from outside to inside surface of tube formula is defined as the amount of area that the tube's surface takes up inside and outside. Surface Area is denoted by SA symbol.
How to calculate Mean Surface area of Tube when Heat transfer takes place from outside to inside surface of tube using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Mean Surface area of Tube when Heat transfer takes place from outside to inside surface of tube, enter Heat Transfer (q), Tube Thickness (x), Thermal Conductivity (k), Outside Surface Temperature (T2) & Inside Surface temperature (T3) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Mean Surface area of Tube when Heat transfer takes place from outside to inside surface of tube calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.137279 = (17.2*0.65)/(10.18*(310-302)).
