Abstract
An integrated heat pipe vent condenser for a heat pipe steam condenser has a vent condenser casing surrounding one or more heat pipes in a vapor duct of the heat pipe steam condenser. The casing may be provided at an inclined orientation relative to a vertical axis of the heat pipe steam condenser. A plurality of baffles are positioned within the casing to provide a serpentine path for a vapor flow entering the casing from the vapor duct to pass through. Condensable gases from the vapor flow condense on the heat pipes and baffles and condensate is drained back into the vapor duct for removal through a drain or downcomer having a trap to prevent vapor flow from entering the downcomer.
