Isobaric Heat Rejection in Condensor Calculator






 

 


How This Is Calculated


Qout=h4−h1 where:

Qout   =   Heat rejected in the condenser   (J)

h4   =   Enthalpy of steam entering the condensor   (J)

h1   =   Enthalpy of the liquid exiting the condensor   (J)


Assumptions


  • The system is in steady state.
  • Working fluid behaves as an ideal gas.
  • There are no heat losses to surroundings.
  • Specific heats remain constant.
