A process and apparatus for exchanging heat with condensable fluid are disclosed. In the process, a two-phase fluid is passed through the tubes of a heat exchanger under conditions of temperature and pressure such that the quality of the two-phase flow lies in the range of 0.03 to 0.97. The two-phase fluid is in a state of thermodynamic saturation at both the entry and exit of the heat exchanger. The change in quality of the two-phase mixture passing through the heat exchanger is distributed over the entire heat exchanger. The apparatus according to the invention includes a plurality of connected modular stages, each stage including a heat exchanger, a vapor-liquid separator, a compressor, an ejector and the suitable conduits to establish fluid communication between adjacent stages. |
