Abstract
Condensation system for use in a power plant. The condensate system includes side stream condenser defining therein first and second hot wells. Condensate is delivered from the first to second hot well through a condensate feed line. Condensate is introduced from the condensate feed line into a tank through a first spill-over line. Condensate is supplied from the second hot well to the power plant through a main condensate feed line. Condensate is introduced from the main condensate feed line into the tank through a second spill-over line. Actuator is operative in response to signal from a level detector detecting level of condensate in the first hot well, to regulate opening degree of a supplementary feed valve in the supplementary feed line, to close one of first and second spill-over valves in the first and second spill-over lines, respectively, and to open the other spill-over valve.
