Principle of Operation of Multi-Jet Barometric Condensers

Fig. 590 and Fig. 591 Multi-Jet Barometric Condensers are generally employed where low cost water is available in ample quantity. It is the simplest design of all barometric condensers, and requires no auxiliary air pump or pre-cooler. It is probably the ideal type where load conditions are constant and there is little air leakage. The Multi-Jet Barometric Condenser is also used where the vacuum handled is not high and a moderately large terminal difference is permissible.

Fig. 590 and Fig. 591 Multi-Jet Barometric Condenser is economical, low first and installation costs.

  • Recommended for operation under fairly constant loads where there is relatively little air leakage, and where water is not too scarce and does not need to be recirculated.
  • Increase efficiency and cut the time required to dehydrate whole fish.
