Your requirement to design a condenser for water vapor-air mixture plus herbacious oils vapors.
Answer:
We have been dealing with vapour condenser, for seawater distillation plant which produces, fresh water for marine ship board applications.
All the water-vaours are condensed and removed as water by an extraction- ejector.
At the top of the condenser, air is extracted by a suitable air- ejector.
As regards to hebacious, vapors dependent on the condensing temperatures, these are segregated, before or after water- vapors.
Pl. look up book on Marine Auxiliary Machinery by Mc. George of Butterwoths Publications. latest edition - 2011, may be sourced for providing the basics of shell and tube condenser and also plate type condensers.
