ABSTRACT:
A heat exchanger tube for condensing steam with the use of cooling air includes an upper steam supply and a lower condensate discharge. The heat exchanger tube has an elongated cross-section in the flow direction of the transversely flowing cooling air. The interior of the tube is divided by a separating wall extending transversely of the flow direction of the cooling air into a condenser stretch whose cross-section becomes smaller in the flow direction of the steam and a dephlegmator stretch whose cross-section becomes smaller in the flow direction of the steam, wherein the condenser stretch is at the lower end thereof connected to the dephlegmator stretch for conducting steam from the condenser stretch to the dephlegmator stretch, and wherein a gas/steam mixture exhauster is mounted at the upper end of the dephlagmator stretch.
