Abstract
A power plant through which motive fluid flows including a vapor turbine into which motive fluid vapor is introduced and expanded so that power is produced, and a horizontal air-cooled condenser (ACC) for receiving and condensing the expanded motive fluid discharged from said vapor turbine. The condenser includes a plurality of mutually parallel and spaced condenser tubes across which air for condensing the motive fluid flows that are disposed at an angle of inclination with respect to a horizontal plane of at least 5 degrees, such that accumulated liquid condensate is evacuated by gravitational forces.
