Condensation Physics I
This lecture covers the physics of condensation, focusing on nucleation, dropwise and filmwise condensation, droplet embryo formation, equilibrium droplet radius, and heat transfer resistance. The instructor explains the importance of condensation in various applications, such as steam cycles and refrigeration. The lecture also delves into the distribution of droplet footprint, dropwise condensation heat flux, and the comparison between dropwise and filmwise condensation. The analysis includes the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, energy balance, and the assumptions made in Nusselt analysis.
