Abstract
An air-cooled condenser includes an upper header for distributing a vaporous medium to be condensed, a lower header for collecting condensate, spaced finned tubes with outer fins, the finned tubes being connected in parallel between the upper header and the lower header and cooled by a cooling air flow, means for draining the condensate form the lower header and extraction means for removing non-condensible gases from the condenser. The lower header is also used for distributing the vaporous medium to the finned tubes, so that the vaporous medium id fed into the finned tubes through both the upper and lower headers, and the extraction means are connected to each of the finned tubes at its portion facing the cooling air flow.
