🔍 Key Concepts

• Steam cycle flow path in a marine propulsion plant • Function of the low-pressure turbine versus the condenser and feed system • Where exhaust steam from the LP turbine normally goes in a basic Rankine cycle

💭 Think About

• Think about the overall direction of energy flow: after expanding in the low-pressure turbine, what happens to the steam’s energy next? • Which of these pieces of equipment is designed to handle mostly exhaust/low‑energy steam, not high‑energy steam? • In the simple steam cycle (without considering extraction lines), what is the next major component after the turbines?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is the primary heat‑rejection component in a marine steam plant • Eliminate any equipment that normally handles water/condensate, not steam • Ask: in a basic textbook Rankine cycle, what comes directly after the turbine on the steam side?
