Hest transfer by convection is due to fluid motion. Cold fluid adjacent to s hot surface receives heat which it imparts to the ring, although in most process applications it is induced by circulating the hot and cold fluids at rapid rates on the opposite sides of pipes or tubes. Free- and forced-conveetion heat transfer oceur at very different speeds, the latter being the more rapid and therefore the more common. Factors which promote high rates for foreed convection do not necessarily have the eame effect om free convection. It is the purpose of this chapter to establish a genoral mothod for obtaining the rates of heat transfer particularly in the presenee of foreed convection. and the average temperature of the air, Since the distance from the pipe surfaeo to the region of averago air temporature is indefinite, the resist noe cannot be computed from R, = Ls/kad, using & for air.

CONDENSATION OF A BINARY MIXTURE ‘Vapot-tiquid Relationships. In the derivation of the Nusselt: equation for a single component it was astumed that the rate at which the vapor centers the condensate film is neatly infinite, A vapor entering’ con- denser at its saturation pressure condenses because the surface is at a temperature below its dew point or saturation temperature, ‘The rate at which the vapor pesees from the vapor phase to the liquid phase, bow- ff ‘ever, is dependent upon the mechanism of diffusion. This means that, at is established. The direction of the differential promotes the flow out of the vapor phase, is related to the temperature of the cold surface and the cooling water range.
