🔍 Key Concepts

• Condensate system and where gases can enter it • How air and steam behave around turbine glands and seal systems • Sources of oxygen contamination in closed feedwater/condensate systems

💭 Think About

• Which option actually introduces outside air (and therefore oxygen) into the condensate, rather than just moving existing steam or water around? • Think about the turbine gland area: what happens if there is a leak into the system versus a leak out of the system? • Which of these problems would most directly allow atmospheric air to be sucked into low‑pressure parts of the system?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices involve a path for atmospheric air to enter the system • Ask: does this option add new oxygen or just cause mechanical/flow problems? • Focus on components connected to low-pressure regions where air can be drawn in (like condenser or glands)
