JSablowski/DWCmod: Version 1.3.1

  • 1. TU Dresden

Description

A python implementation of heat transfer models for dropwise condensation. Overall heat flux, single drop heat flux and drop size distribution can be calculated for various fluids. The fluid properties are calculated automatically thanks to CoolProp. Please refer to the original paper for a detailed description of the implemented model.

Changes since last version:

  • add Bond number of droplets immediately before departure to misc. model output
  • add thermal conductivity of condensate to misc. model output
  • better plotting of dropsize distribution and thermal resistances
  • plotting function for dropsize distribution now works with varying subcooling temperatures
