to design condensation of water steam
(OP)
Hi Everybody,
I will have to condens 100 kg water steam of 120 °C during 1 hour operation. What kind of equipment ought to be used and how much m2 surface is required in heat exchanger? How can I design said condensator?
best regards

RE: to design condensation of water steam
I doubt that anyone will volunteer to design your steam condenser. This is not a free design service Forum. If you are an engineer (which I expect), you should be perfectly capable of designing (or specifying) your own condenser. Why you should ask how to go about doing this is beyond me - unless you are not an engineer.

Many thanks for your comments. I don´t need your free consultation but really I need valutable comments. In last 30 years I had to work in fully different areas therefore I no have suitable knowledge for obtaining design results in short time. But if you need advices regarding approach of interperation of research in plant protection chemicals I would be glad to give all the required information to you. Sorry that you were disturbed by question from unexpert person. I did not want to cause problems but I beleived that somebody could give useful and usable details since said Forum description is as follows:Chemical plant design & operations technical support forum and mutual help system for engineering professionals.
I hope somebody can help me if you are not able to allow from your proudness.
Have a nice day

For general correlations for heat transfer coefficients, you might check heat transfer textbooks.
I suppose you could inject the steam into water directly, and not need much in the way of a heat exchanger.
