Condenser Analysis
Tale Of The Tool
This tool assists in the performance analysis of steam-turbine condensers. It establishes key performance indicators, including computed values for:
- (1) The cooling water flow rate
- (2) The percentage change in the condenser's overall heat transfer coefficient
- (3) The partial pressure of ingressed air and its corresponding vacuum-decay equivalence
To convey the economic impact of departures from specification, the analysis also provides a detailed breakdown of any increased operational cost attributed to the presence of ingressed air, a reduction in the overall heat transfer coefficient, and a below-normal cooling water flow rate.
