🔍 Key Concepts

• steam cycle condensate and feed system flow path (condenser → hot well → condensate pump → DC heater → feed pump → boiler) • Effect of condensate pump speed vs. feed pump recirc on DC heater level • When to use makeup feed in relation to overall system water inventory

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: If boiler and hot well levels are normal, is the total water inventory in the system actually low, or is it just not being distributed correctly? • Which action would directly add water to the DC heater, and which actions mainly change flows or pressures without increasing the total water in the system? • Would bypassing heat‑recovery equipment help a low level in the DC heater if all other levels are normal?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that boiler water level and hot well level are both normal, meaning total system water quantity is likely adequate. • Identify which choice adds water to the feed system from outside the normal condensate loop. • Verify which valves or speed changes would only circulate existing water instead of increasing the DC heater level.
