▣ Steam Turbine Auxiliary Equipment 1) Condenser – Consists of two shells, expanding the turbine exhaust steam into a vacuum state through heat exchange with the cooling water on the tube side, maximizing the steam’s thermal drop to improve turbine efficiency and reuse the condensate as feedwater. – By installing the low-pressure feedwater heaters No. 1 and 2 on each shell neck, efficient use of space and reduction in pressure drop of extraction steam piping is achieved. The turbine exhaust section and condenser are connected by an expansion joint. 2) Condensate Pump – When the exhaust from the steam…
