Q

A condensate recirculating line is provided to the main condenser in a closed feed water system to __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Closed feed water system purpose and flow path • How condensate temperature and pressure affect feed pump operation • What happens when water approaches its saturation temperature at the suction of a pump

💭 Think About

• Think about where the main condenser is located in the feed system and what happens to condensate after it leaves the condenser. • What problem could occur in the main feed pump if the condensate is too hot or the suction pressure is too low? • Why would sending some condensate back to the condenser help with that problem?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice deals specifically with conditions at the main feed pump suction rather than other equipment. • Consider which option involves avoiding vapor formation (cavitation risk) in a high‑speed centrifugal pump. • Eliminate any choices that are mainly about air ejectors or DC heater temperature control, not pump suction conditions.
