  • Patent number: 5829255
    Abstract: A system and method for direct-contact condensation with condensate, cold, and heat supplies in steam-turbine power plants, evaporators, and other heat-and-mass transfer equipment having a condenser. Outside snow/ice collectors accumulate and store snow, atmospheric ice, and condensate for transporting the snow/ice coolant to an inside storage area when needed. The snow/ice from outside delivery and from the inside storage area is transported into a hard foreign matter separator. A grinder prepares an atmospheric ice powder to spray into a condenser. A vacuum exhaust pump/air ejector evacuates cold air from a condenser well for a vacuum support and for cooling uses. A condensate pump transports icy condensate from the condenser well to the inside storage area. Filters catch a mud from condensate for feed-water protection from impurities.
