As software systems continue to grow, and as project teams become larger and more distributed, support for project management in collaborative environments is critical. Management tasks include maintaining team coordination, monitoring progress, and, of particular interest for this work, managing risk tasks often add significant overhead to a project. To reduce overhead, management tasks must b...

Heat transfer condensation tests inside a 8 mm ID tube for R-134a, R-410A and R-125 are reported at an average saturation temperature of 40°C, at mass velocities ranging from 65 to 750 kg/(m s), over the entire vapour quality range. After comparing the experimental data against a model able to predict both shear force and gravity driven condensation, a comparison among these fluids has been car...
