Abstract
► A new physical model for laminar film condensation is proposed. ► The liquid was assumed to be in Couette flow forced by the interfacial velocity at the liquid-vapor interface. ► To estimate the interfacial velocity, an empirical power-law velocity profile was introduced. ► The proposed model predicted the condensation heat transfer coefficient from experiments reasonably well.
