I would like to know is anyone who is familiar with surface condenser cost estimation has a general formula (only for economic evaluation purpose) that estimate the complete cost of the condenser depending on the BWG, material of tubes, air removing system, heat exchange surface, tube OD, etc. for medium to large condensers

Best Regards,

Use $0.90/ft for the tubing and $25/tube for the condenser.

Alternatively, you can use $20/ft^2 of surface not including installation.
 
Thanks for your kind response
