Abstract
This invention relates to the reheating of a cold cryogenic fluid by heat exchange with a warm liquid, commonly water. The cold cryogenic fluid first flows into a descending tube and then into a rising tube whereas the water trickles along the tubes and from an upper supply, as far as a base manifold. The invention is particularly applicable to the reheating and revaporization of liquified natural gas.
