Abstract
An improved condenser including a longitudinal extending baffle and a series of transversely extending baffle plates creating a desired flow path for vapor to be cooled which is introduced into a shell. The condenser is characterized by high efficiency performance resulting from improved heat transfer coefficients and better purging of non-condensable gases because of the novel baffle arrangement.
