mm as is shown in fig3 as an example including both sheets of barrier material 302 and the layer of mesh 303 dimensions however are only provided as examples because barrier panel 301 will function properly at varying thicknesses the presence of n 2 and or o 2 in the water vapor moving through the compressor module and the heat exchanger module is not ideal these gasses will not be compressed properly by the compressor module nor condensed properly by the heat exchanger module therefore causing less than ideal heat to be transferred to the working fluid in the heat exchanger module resulting in less electrical power generation and lowering overall system efficiency the n 2 and o 2 and any other noncondensable gasses present after being drawn through the barriers may be removed by a noncondensable gas removal subsystem incorporated into the vapor separation module a noncondensable gas removal subsystem may be simply another barrier type system whereby water vapor containing a small fraction of noncondensible gasses is drawn past another set of barriers which are highly impermeable to water vapor but highly permeable to the unwanted gasses which are thereby separated from the water vapor alternatively the noncondensable gas removal subsystem may utilize barriers which are permeable to n 2 and or o 2 while being.
