Why Condensers?
Ideal Rankine cycle
PMM2
Condenser is a device in which steam is condensed to water and rejects latent heat.
Why Condensers?
Needs More Efficiency!
Vacuum Creation!
Condensers
I) Surface Condense

1 -Air cooled condenser
2 -Water cooled condenser
3 -Evaporative Condenser
II) Jet Condense
rs
1 -Parallel Flow Jet Condenser

Classification
I) Surface condensers 1- Air Cooled Condenser
I) Surface condensers 2- Water cooled condensers
I) Surface condensers 3- Evaporative Condenser
II) Jet Condensers 1,2- Parallel vs. Counter Flow Jet Condensers
Jet vs. Surface Condensers:Jet Condensers• Mixing.• Condensate
can not be FW.• less quantity of
CW.• low vacuum
efficiency.• Less suitable
for high capacity plants.
• Simple.
Surface Condensers
• No Mixing.• Condensate can
be FW.• large quantity
of CW.• High vacuum
efficiency.• More suitable
for high capacity plants.
• Complicated.
