Literature survey on vertical tube evaporators (VTE's). Part I. Bibliographical entries

A bibliography of the literature pertinent to vertical tube heat exchangers for OTEC application has been prepared. More than 200 references from different sources (journals, books, companies and government reports) on heat exchanger design, operation and performance have been identified and surveyed for a two part report on the state-of-the-art of vertical tube evaporators. This bibliography represents Part I. Each bibliographical entry has been coded to facilitate references to particular articles in the narrative account of the survey represented in Part II.
