Questions and Answers

Which of the following is a consequence of the steam flowing directly to the condensate tank without spending enough time in the heat exchanger?

  • The condensate tank would become too full
  • The steam would lose heat and condense in the heat exchanger (correct)
  • The heat exchanger would become overloaded
  • The condensate would become too hot to pump back into the boiler

    • What happens to the condensate once it is in the condensate tank?

  • It is cooled down (correct)
  • It is heated up
  • It is vented to atmosphere
  • It is pressurized

    • How does the basic system in a power plant steam cycle differ from most process steam systems?

  • It does not have a condensate tank
  • It operates at lower steam pressures
  • It has more stages (correct)
  • It has fewer steam-consuming processes
