Water Condensation Processes, Modeling and Control

This book introduces advanced water vapour condensation processes, modelling and control technologies in order to find a sustainable solution in an industrialised society. The theoretical analysis and modelling of heat and mass transfer rates produced in a condensation process is a significant issue in a design of wide range of industrial processes and devices. It includes five advanced and revised contributions which cover the laminar film-wise condensation; the condensation at nanoscale; the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds in aqueous medium; the condensation for solar still and the effect of noncondensable gases on condensation.
