What is Condensate Management in Heat Exchangers about?

The water leaving a steam trap in an exchanger rises through a riser line designed for water. As it rises, it loses pressure and starts to vaporize, expanding and pushing water back into the exchanger. Some vaporization is suppressed due to the backup of condensate in the exchanger. However, vaporization in the riser reduces the pressure loss between the exchanger and drum. The exact calculations to predict condensate backup and heat transfer loss are complex, so the drum is best located below rather than a
