Mechanical Engineering - Heat transfer(Spray condenser)


Expert: Al Hall - 3/9/2007

Question
Sir
I am designing a spray type condenser and would like to know how to calculate the mixing length for the condenser.It is operating at supercritical conditions.Please help me with some information

Answer
I am afraid that I do not know anything about a mixing length calculation for a condenser. I also do not understand anything about a "super critical" condenser.  Super critical refers to a location on the steam tables where steam is very high pressure, and high temperature.  Condenser conditions are NOT super critical.  I am afraid I cannot help you with this information.

Al
