  2. Feedwater heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedwater_heater

    A Rankine cycle with two steam turbines and a single open feedwater heater. A feedwater heater is a power plant component used to pre-heat water delivered to a steam generating boiler. [1] [2] [3] Preheating the feedwater reduces the irreversibilities involved in steam generation and therefore improves the thermodynamic efficiency of the system ...

  3. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    Municipal water feed; Fluid from water storage tank to external (passive) heat source; passive heat source can be the ground (soil or groundwater), sun or air via heat pump, district heating or thermodynamic solar panel; Fluid from heat pump, or thermodynamic solar panel to water storage tank; Pump, actuator, controller and other parts; Water ...

  4. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater

    The water is reused and needs to be treated to continue efficient operations. Boiler water must be treated in order to be proficient in producing steam. Boiler water is treated to prevent scaling, corrosion, foaming, and priming. Chemicals are put into boiler water through the chemical feed tank to keep the water within chemical range.

  5. Boiler feedwater pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater_pump

    The water may be freshly supplied or returning condensate produced as a result of the condensation of the steam produced by the boiler. These pumps are normally high pressure units that take suction from a condensate return system and can be of the centrifugal pump type or positive displacement type.

  6. Auxiliary feedwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxiliary_feedwater

    The typical steam turbine used in the aux feedwater systems are the “solid wheel” or “water wheel” Terry Steam Turbines manufactured by the Curtiss-Wright Corporation in Summerville, SC. In contrast to emergency core cooling systems for loss-of-coolant accidents , the auxiliary feedwater system does not inject directly into the reactor ...

  7. Forced circulation boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_circulation_boiler

    In a water tube boiler, the water is recirculated inside until the vapor pressure of the water overcomes the vapor pressure inside the stream drum and becomes saturated steam. The forced circulation boiler begins the same as a natural circulation boiler, at the feed water pump. Water is introduced into the steam drum and is circulated around ...

  9. Albanian keyboard layout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albanian_keyboard_layout

    While primarily designed for the Albanian language, Plisi may be used to type almost any language using the Latin alphabet. Plisi is another alternative layout based on the U.S. mechanical keyboard and layout and supplemented with adaptations from the German T2 and QWERTZ Albanian layouts.
