Abstract:Recently, in a previous study, we have experimentally shown the existence of an optimal
injected steam mass flow rate, per unit length, ϕopt, which produces the maximal recovery of con-
densate in a preformed steam chamber with an elliptical cross section of horizontal semi-major axis.
Mutatis mutandis, in this work we present experimental studies in preformed steam chambers, one
elliptical and the other circular. In both cases, we also have found the existence of unique optimal
