Condensate and Feedwater System Control

Learning objectives

  • Explain how single element control responds to changes in drum level
  • Explain how three element control responds to changes in feedwater flow, steam flow, and drum level
  • Describe three types of level indication used in the condensate and feedwater systems
  • Explain the basic procedure used in the event of a tube rupture in a high pressure feedwater heater

Course overview

When you complete this lesson, you will be able to explain steam drum level control methods and discuss their overall relationship to condensate and feedwater flow. In addition, you will be able to describe different types of level measurement used in the condensate and feedwater systems.
