ABSTRACT:
A minor portion of low pressure exhaust vapor such as exhaust steam is compressed to a temperature above that which a major part of said exhaust vapor is being condensed, suitably by a centrifugal compressor driven by higher pressure vapor from the same source as that which powers a principal turbine that furnishes most of said exhaust vapor. The major part of said exhaust vapor is condensed and the resulting main condensate is passed into heat exchange with the compressed minor portion of the exhaust vapor for generating a heated resulting main condensate and a secondary condensate from condensation of the compressed exhaust vapor. These condensates are withdrawn, suitably for deaeration when the vapor used is steam.
