ADVANCED LARGE SCALE FIELD MOUNTED INDUSTRIAL WATER COOLED STEAM CONDENSER Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC F25B39/04 F28B1/06 

FIELD: heat exchanger systems.

SUBSTANCE: large scale, field-mounted, industrial water-cooled steam condenser has heat exchanger tube bundles and is configured with an integral secondary section located in the centre of the heat exchanger, surrounded by identical main condenser areas. The bottom cover is designed to supply steam to the lower end of the pipes of the main condenser and to receive condensate formed in the same pipes. The non-condensed vapour and non-condensable substances pass into the top cover from the main condenser tubes and pass towards the centre of the heat exchanger tube bundle where they enter the tubes of the secondary condenser area. The non-condensable substances and condensate generated in the pipes of the additional area enter the additional bottom cover inside the main bottom cover and exit the additional bottom cover through the outlet nozzle.

EFFECT: each condenser cell is supplied by a single riser that delivers steam to an upper steam distribution header suspended from and directly below the tube bundle support structure.
