🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of an atmospheric drain tank / fresh water drain collector in a steam plant • Relationship between condenser drains, distilled water, and make‑up to the feed system • What happens to distilled (condensate) water if the collector tank is allowed to overfill while underway

💭 Think About

• Think about where the drains going into this tank are coming from and whether that water is typically fresh/distilled or potable. • If the tank keeps filling and is not controlled, where can the excess liquid physically go, and what does that mean for the overall water balance of the steam cycle? • Consider which listed effects would be direct and immediate results of an overflowing drain tank, versus effects that would be more indirect or not logically connected.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether this drain tank is normally vented to atmosphere or part of a pressurized system. • Check which answer choices talk about loss of water from the system and identify what type of water that would most likely be from a condenser/fresh water drain collector. • Confirm whether an overflow from this atmospheric tank would more reasonably affect system pressure, condenser vacuum, or simply the inventory of distilled water in the plant.
