Overview Performance of shell-and-tube condensers is affected by Non-condensable gases Shell side pressure drop Inundation CFD analysis of a steam condenser demonstrates Condensation processes can be successfully modeled with Fluent CFD results provide insight into factors affecting condenser performance Representation of tube bundle as porous medium reduces computational expense of calculation and provides meaningful results Problem Description:McAllister Condenser Source: Bush et al., 1990, Proc. Int. Symposium on Condensers and Condensation Working fluid is a mixture of steam and air Condenser has shell-and-tube configuration with 20 x 20 tube bundle in equilateral triangular layout Purge system removes non-condensable gases (air) Modeling Approach: Shell Side Flow Tube bundle is represented as a porous medium by replacing geometrical details with porosity Modeling Approach: Heat and Mass Transfer Heat transfer is modeled by coupling of thermal resistance network with CFD code Solution Procedure Tube bundle is represented as a porous medium Continuity, momentum and species transport equations are solved. Vapor assumed to be saturated throughout tube bundle, therefore energy equation is not solved Effect of liquid on vapor flow assumed to be negligible UDFs calculate heat and mass transfer from condensation process based on CFD solution at current iteration Log-mean cooling water temperature determined with energy balance using heat transfer calculated in UDFs.

UGM 2001 P d Porosity, b, is the ratio of the void volume in the tube bundle to the total bundle volume. Here it can be expressed as: convection diffusion distributed resistance Eqn. continuity 1 x-mom. u y-mom. v species w ? Example: st
