Hey!
I am working on a project currently, where I would like to evaluate the conndensed water mass at the outer surface of a pipe.
To give you an example: A cold fluid below 0 °C / 32 °F is flowing through a pipe. The pipe is placed into a container with moist air. Assuming that the wall temperature is equal to the temperature of the fluid inside the pipe, water included in moist air should eventually condensate at the outer wall surface.
Hence my question, does anyone know how to model such a behaviour? I know how to model condensation inside the pipe, which is not of interest now, but I am not aware how to model the condensation inside the container at the outer pipe surface. Is this even possible?
Thank you for helping me out in advance!Hey!
