Abstract:
A condenser includes: a vessel (11) configured to receive a steam flow (S) in a first horizontal direction (X); and cooling tube groups (21, 22, 23, 24) elongated in the first horizontal direction (X) inside the vessel. Each of the cooling tubes groups has a plurality of cooling tubes (31) that are disposed in parallel and extend in a second horizontal direction (Y), which intersects with the first horizontal direction. A hollow portion (32) is formed in the first horizontal direction (X) inside each of the cooling tube groups. A non-condensed gas discharge unit (33) is arranged in the second horizontal direction (Y) at a downstream side of each of the cooling tube groups and includes an opening portion (34) on the hollow portion side. Each of the cooling tube groups includes a partition member (35) extending from the non-condensed gas discharge unit and open at the hollow portion.
