Modular air cooled condenser apparatus and related methods are disclosed. An example mechanical draft modular air cooled condenser includes a first condenser bundle panel, a second condenser bundle panel, a third condenser bundle panel, and a fourth condenser bundle panel. The example condenser also includes a fan positioned to create a draft to flow over the first, second, third, and fourth condenser bundle panels.

Modular air cooled condenser apparatus and method

Modular air cooled condenser apparatus and related methods are disclosed. An example mechanical draft modular air cooled condenser includes a succession of a first condenser bundle panel, a second condenser bundle panel, a third condenser bundle panel, and a fourth condenser bundle panel. The example condenser also includes a first, second, third, and fourth condensate headers connected to respective ones of the first, second, third, and fourth condenser bundle panels. The example condenser also includes a fan positioned to create a draft to flow over the first, second, third, and fourth condenser bundle panels.

Modular air cooled condenser apparatus and related methods are disclosed. An example mechanical draft modular air cooled condenser disclosed herein includes an example condenser module that includes a plenum and a first condenser bundle having a first set of tubes having first ends and second ends and a first condensate header connected to the second ends of the tubes. The example condenser module also includes a second condenser bundle having a second set of tubes having third ends and fourth ends and a second condensate header connected to the fourth ends of the second set of tubes. In addition, the condenser module includes a third condenser bundle having a third set of tubes having fifth ends and sixth ends and a third condensate header connected to the sixth ends of the third set of tubes. The condenser module also includes a fourth condenser bundle having a fourth set of tubes having seventh ends and eighth ends and a fourth condensate header connected to the eighth ends of the fourth set of tubes. The condenser module further includes a shroud that houses a single fan, the single fan positioned to create a draft to flow over the first condenser bundle, over the second condenser bundle, over the third condenser bundle, and over the fourth condenser bundle. In addition, the condenser module includer a support frame that supports the first, second, third, and fourth condenser bundles.

Modular air cooled condenser apparatus and related methods are disclosed. An example mechanical draft modular air cooled condenser includes a first condenser bundle having a set of tubes arranged parallel to each other in a first plane that is inclined by an angle &#x3b1; with respect to the horizontal; a second condenser bundle having a set of tubes arranged parallel to each other in a second plane that is inclined by an angle (180&#xb0;-&#x3b1;) with respect to the horizontal; a third condenser bundle having a set of tubes arranged parallel to each other in a third plane that is inclined by an angle &#x3b1; with respect to the horizontal; a fourth condenser bundle having a set of tubes arranged parallel to each other in a fourth plane that is inclined by an angle (180&#xb0;-&#x3b1;) with respect to the horizontal; and a fan to create a draft to flow over the condenser bundles.

A mechanical draft cooling tower employs air cooled condenser modules and operates by mechanical draft to exchange heat between atmospheric air and steam. The cooling tower utilizes a modular air cooled condenser with heat exchange deltas having tube bundles that are manufactured and assembled prior to being shipped to the tower site.

An air cooled condenser (ACC) system is described having a first street having at least one air cooled condenser module and a second street having at least one air cooled condenser module. The system employs a steam inlet conduit provides steam to the first and second streets. The air cooled condenser system has a standard vacuum system for providing suction pressure to the first and second street. The air cooled condenser system also has an auxiliary vacuum system that provides suction pressure to the first and second streets.
