Abstract
The invention concerns an aerocondenser for a thermal power station, comprising, more particularly, a first heat exchanger for reheating the air by exchange of heat with a fluid having a freezing point lower than 0.degree. C, for example, a Freon substance, the respective rates and surfaces of exchange between the fluid having a low freezing point and the water vapor being such that the air is heated to a temperature appreciably above 0.degree. C, before beginning to effect a heat exchange with the water vapor to be condensed.
