Abstract :
SLIGHT VARIATIONS in the performance of the surface condenser of a steam turbine power plant can make substantial differences in the over-all thermal efficiency of the plant. Since this portion of the plant has been to date the subject of less intensive study as far as supervisory instrumentation is concerned, the surface condenser has been chosen as the typical unit to be studied from the viewpoint of supervising instruments.
