• Film condensation on flat vertical plate
Definition:
Condensation is the change of the
physical state of matter from gas
phase into liquid phase, and is the
reverse of evaporation. It can also be
defined as the change in the state of
water vapour to liquid water when in
contact with a liquid or solid surface
According to chemistry,
• Many structures—such as fog fences, air wells, and dew ponds—are made
solely for the purpose of collecting water from condensation
• Such systems can be used to retain soil moisture in areas where active
desertification is occurring
