STEAM CONDENSERS

 The heat transfer device in which the exhaust steam of a turbine or an


engine is condensed by means of cooling water at pressure below
atmospheric, is called Steam Condenser.

 The condensed steam is called Condensate and can be again returned to


Boiler. It saves the cost of water.
