Enter the total heat removed from the system and the latent heat contained in the Condensate Temperature Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Condensate Temperature. 

Condensate Temperature Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Condensate Temperature.

CT = Q / L

Variables:

  • CT is the Condensate Temperature ( )
  • Q is the total heat removed from the system 
  • L is the latent heat contained 

To calculate the condensate temperature, divide the total heat removed from the system by the latent heat contained.

How to Calculate Condensate Temperature?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Condensate Temperature.


  1. First, determine the total heat removed from the system. 
  2. Next, determine the latent heat contained. 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = CT = Q / L.
  4. Finally, calculate the Condensate Temperature.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

total heat removed from the system = 30

latent heat contained = 10

CT = Q / L = ?
