The surface condenser is a shell and tube heat exchanger in which cooling water is circulated through the tubes.
12.
A series of wooden cooling towers were constructed and allowed the use of surface condensers for these larger sets.
13.
"Suwanee " was powered by a 58-inch direct-acting steam engine, fitted with a surface condenser.
14.
DM water make-up is generally added at the steam space of the surface condenser ( i . e ., the vacuum side ).
15.
The company produces high and low pressure water heating systems, radial or axial steam output surface condensers and retrofits for previously-installed ` koda heat exchangers.
16.
Heat loss is minimized by the use of chemically desalinated water in the closed circuit of cooling, which enables the usage of mixing condensers instead of surface condensers.
17.
The power station uses supercritical steam technology, which produces lower greenhouse gases emissions per energy unit delivered, and air-cooled surface condensers, which reduces water consumption.
18.
An air-cooled condenser is however, significantly more expensive and cannot achieve as low a steam turbine exhaust pressure ( and temperature ) as a water-cooled surface condenser.
19.
All fossil-fueled and nuclear power plants using steam-driven turbines have surface condensers to convert the exhaust steam from the turbines into condensate ( water ) for re-use.
20.
Circulating water used in the station's surface condensers was taken from the River Tyne, which was around from the station and at around below the level of the station's engines.
