Due to their crucial significance in cooling equipment, air-cooled condensers have been extensively studied in scientific studies to increase their quality and efficiency. The refrigerant fluid travels via three different locations in the condenser. First, a single-phase fluid flow has overheated gas at the compressor outlet. Subsequently, a two-phase fluid with a gas and a liquid component flows. In the end, the liquid moves in a single phase. This study is predicated on the fluid's compressibility and the fixed diet in the three circumstances. The heat and mass transport phenomena between liquid and vapor in the flow zone are explained via condenser modeling. The equations that control this flow are the enthalpy air equation, the energy equation applied to the tube wall, the conservation equation of mass, quantity of motion, and energy plus. Using the Refprop V8.0 subroutines and the Fortran code, we computed the fluid's properties for the numerical resolution. This study aims to investigate and improve the condenser's efficiency.
