Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / refrigeration
German term or phrase: Gegenstromführung
The invention relates to: “ein Verfahren und eine Einrichtung zur Kälteerzeugung unter 0 °C nach dem Sorptionsprinzip mit einem Lösungsumlauf von zwei ineinander voll löslichen Flüssigkeiten ohne druckausgleichendem Gas. Anwendbar sind die erfindungsgemäßen Absorptionskälteanlagen vorzugsweise für Leistungen im kW-Bereich”.
Context: "Für dampfbeheizte Desorber großer Leistung mit Heizdampf an der Mantelseite ist diese Form der Gestaltung des Hochdruckteils immer noch sinnvoll, wenn man die adiabate Ausführung des Rektifikators mit äußerer Rücklauferzeugung beibehalten will. Vorteilhaft ist die Gegenstromführung des entgasenden Lösungsfilms und der aufsteigenden Dämpfe sowie der geringe Ammoniakinhalt des Desorbers."

countercurrent conduction
Explanation:
Countercurrent exchange is a mechanism used to transfer some property of a fluid from one flowing current of fluid to another across a Semipermeable membrane or thermally-conductive material between them.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countercurrent_exchange

coun·ter·cur·rent
A current that flows in an opposite direction to the flow of another current.

counter flow feeding


Explanation:
also leads to large heat losses from the reaction area to the surrounding area during counter flow feeding of the educt and product streams,

Das große Oberflächen-zu-Volumen-Verhältnis führt jedoch auch bei Gegenstromführung der Edukt- und Produktströme zu hohen Wärmeverlusten
