The inside surface of a 1-m-long vertical 5-cm-ID tube is maintained at 120°C. For saturated steam at 350 kPa condensing inside, estimate the average heat transfer coefficient and the condensation rate, assuming the steam velocity is small.

GIVEN
? Steam condensing inside a vertical tube
? Tube length (L) = 1 m
? Tube inside diameter (D) = 5 cm = 0.05 m
? Tube surface temperature (Ts) = 120°C
? Steam pressure (p) = 350 kPa
FIND
? The average heat transfer coefficient (hc)
ASSUMPTIONS
? Steady state
? The steam velocity is small
? Film condensation occurs
