METHOD AND MEANS FOR SALVAGING AND RECYCLING THE LATENT HEAT ENERGY OF EXHAUST STEAM ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method and means for economically producing boiling hot condensate plus mechanical energy from exhaust steam whereby energy waste and thermal pollution from power stations is greatly lessened. Herein, a combination engine and hot condenser is inter- posed between the main turbine exhaust port and the vacuum condenser for the purpose of making the steam do work and thus bringing about condensation at its boiling point. Since the latent energy of exhaust steam is enthalpic as well as thermic by nature, its extraction as mechanical energy greatly lessens heat release upon condensation. The mechanical work produced by such an engine depends not upon expansion, as in a main turbine, but upon continuous force exerted by vapor pressure operating on one side of a piston having a vacuum on the other.
