Combined air cooled condenser

Air cooling system, which contains a steam-air heat exchanger consisting of tubes finned on the outside suitable for the partial direct condensing of a medium in the vapour state with ambient air, which heat exchanger receives the steam from an upper distribution chamber and ends in a lower chamber, which collects the amount of condensate according to the condensed steam and the steam that has not yet condensed, characterised by that it has at least one direct contact condenser (9) in which the remaining steam that has not yet condensed (23) coming from the lower collection chamber (25) of the steam-air heat exchanger (3) condenses on the effect of cooling water (12) cooled in a water-air heat exchanger (7) and sprayed through nozzles (10);

• at the same time the non-condensing gases (11) are removed from the aforementioned direct contact condenser (9) through a suitably structured tray-type or packed after-cooler (37).
