Abstract

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 α 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°-α) 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 α 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°-α) with respect to the horizontal; and a fan to create a draft to flow over the condenser bundles.
