One shell, Single pressure, One pass and Non-divided type

 Cooling water is passed only one time

 Plant has only one condenser called single pressure and

single shell condenser

 Only one water box is used at the inlet and only one water
box is used at the outlet to be non divided type of condenser

 Used in Very small power plants

knowledge check

Function of Gland seals is

A) To maintain a minimum clearance between stationary and rotary parts, to avoid friction

B) To prevent air ingression into the turbine cylinder from the atmosphere

C) To prevent the steam leak from turbine to atmosphere

D) All of the above
