🔍 Key Concepts

• DC heater (dearator) function in a steam plant and how it responds to changes in feed water flow and temperature • Effect of large amounts of relatively cool make‑up feed water on temperatures in feed system components • Relationship between feedwater addition, heater level, and outlet temperatures

💭 Think About

• Think about the typical temperature of make‑up feed water compared to the normal operating temperature of the DC heater and condensate system. How would mixing these affect temperatures? • If you add a large amount of make‑up feed water to the DC heater, what happens physically to the water level inside? Does it tend to rise, fall, or stay the same (before any controls react)? • Consider which components see this cooler make‑up water first. Which temperature readings in the system would likely change the most and in what direction?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the normal temperature and purpose of the DC heater (including its role in deaeration and preheating). • Check whether adding more water directly to the DC heater would, in the short term, raise or lower the water level, assuming controls haven’t yet corrected it. • Confirm which way the air ejector condenser main condensate outlet temperature would shift if a cooler stream of make‑up feed water is introduced into the system.
