ABSTRACT:
A power plant may include a steam generator and a steam turbine wherein the steam generator provides steam to the turbine for driving the turbine and exhausted steam from the turbine is condensed in the turbine condenser to be pumped back to the steam generator as feedwater. In order to maintain minimum feedwater pump flows and to provide an alternative flow path should the steam generator require less than the available feedwater flow, a recirculation loop is provided for returning a portion of the feedwater to the turbine condenser. According to the present invention, this return flow to the condenser may be used for deaeration of condensate and for the attemperation of bypass steam.
