For the convective condensation heat transfer of flue gas with a few water vapors produced by pressurized oxy-coal combustion in vertical tube, investigation and calculation were carried out by theoretical analyzing method. Heat transfer mathematical model was set up by modified film model and Nusselt's condensation theory. Calculations were performed for condensation heat transfer at different wall temperatures, Reynolds numbers and water vapor fractions. Results show that with the increase of wall temperature, the condensation rate of flue gas, heat flux and condensation film thickness decrease. And with the increase of Reynolds number of the mixture gas, the condensation rate of flue gas and heat flux increase too, while the condensation film thickness decrease. With the decrease of water vapor fraction, the condensation rate of flue gas and heat flux decrease too, while the decrease of condensation film thickness is not obvious.
