Abstract

A condenser and semiconductor processing machine, relating to the art of semiconductor equipment. The condenser 100 includes a sealed cavity; wherein, a gas passage is provided in the sealed cavity; cooling liquid is filled around the gas passage; a gas inlet, a gas outlet, and a liquid outlet are provided on the sealed cavity, the gas inlet is communicated with the inlet of the gas passage, the gas outlet is communicated with the outlet of the gas passage, and the liquid outlet is communicated with the gas passage; the gas passage is a Tesla valve structure passage.

Claims (26)

1. A condenser, comprising:

a sealed cavity;

a gas passage provided inside the sealed cavity, cooling liquid is filled around the gas passage; and

a gas inlet, a gas outlet and a liquid outlet provided on the sealed cavity,

the gas inlet is connected to an inlet of the gas passage, the gas outlet is connected to an outlet of the gas passage, and the liquid outlet is connected to the gas passage; wherein:
