  • 1. China Inst. of Atomic Energy, Beijing (China)

Description

An analytical model for the flooding of reflux condensation in a vertical tube was proposed based on the separated-flow models. Calculation results show that the present model predicts well the experimental data obtained in a single inverted U-tube, and agrees well with the Dukler-Smith correlation. However, the discrepancies between the present model and the Kutateladze's type of correlation, and other analytical models are great
