The specific features of heat and mass transfer of flue 
gases deeply cooled below the dew point of the steam contained in 
them have been analyzed. A method of determining the local parameters 
of heat and mass transfer in surface condensation heat utilization 
units is suggested. An analysis of the local characteristics of cooled 
and condensing combustion products allows one to study the relationship 
between the heat and mass transfer parameters and justify the optimum 
geometric characteristics of condensation heat utilization units.

Keywords: vapor-gas flow, heat utilization, heat and mass transfer, condensation.
