In regenerative air preheater (as practised in heating of coke ovens), the heat is transferred
through a metallic wall.
by direct contact of hot flue gas with air.

Pick out the wrong statement.
The condensing film co-efficient is about 3 times lower for vertical condenser as compared to the equivalent horizontal condenser for identical situation.
Film co-efficient for vaporisation decreases as a result of vapor binding.
In industrial practice, sub-cooling of condensate is required, when the condensate is a volatile liquid and is to be transferred for storage.
Overall heat transfer co-efficient in a heat exchanger is controlled by the value of the film co-efficient, which is higher.
