  • Cooling of fluid streams
    Patent number: 4282926
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for cooling a fluid stream, especially flue gases produced in large volumes in industrial processes. Heat is dumped from the gas stream via the medium of a circulating fluid which is evaporated by a gas stream and then recondensed as it dumps its acquired heat. The fluid is chosen and the rate of recondensation is controlled so that the liquid phase is at a selected saturation temperature which is then the interface temperature in the gas stream.
