A method and apparatus for separating components from a mixture (16) includes a condensing surface (14) located in a high vapor concentration region above the source of evaporated liquid. The evaporated liquid is condensed on the condensing surface (14). The condensed liquid is removed from the condensing surface (14) while it remains liquid, using substantially capillary forces. A plurality of open grooves (20) are formed on the condensing surface (14). The grooves (20) channel the condensed liquid on the condensing surface (14) away from the mixture (16). The grooves (20) can be capillary grooves which satisfy the Concus-Finn Inequality.
L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil de séparation de composants d'un mélange (16). Cet appareil est composé d'une surface de condensation (14) placée au-dessus de la source d'un liquide en évaporation, dans une zone de forte concentration en vapeur. Le liquide en évaporation est condensé sur la surface de condensation (14). Le liquide condensé est ôté de la surface de condensation (14) lorsqu'il est encore liquide, au moyen de forces sensiblement capillaires. Une pluralité de rainures ouvertes (20) sont formées sur la surface de condensation (14). Les rainures (20) canalisent le liquide condensé sur la surface de condensation (14), pour l'éloigner du mélange (16). Les rainures (20) peuvent être des rainures capillaires qui satisfont aux conditions d'intégralité de Concus-Finn.
