Abstract
Heat transfer data are presented for condensing steam at 2 in. Hg absolute pressure on the outside of nine copper and nine titanium horizontal tubes in a vertical row. The condensing coefficient correction factor was maximum for the top titanium tube and was 46% higher than the correction factor for the top copper tube. The difference between the correction factors for titanium and copper tubes diminished with the number of tubes in a vertical row to 8% higher than the correction factor for copper tubes with six to nine tubes in a vertical row.Keywords
