Abstract
The steam condenser is a major component of a power plant cycle. In the space of the condenser, the steam which exhaust from the turbine is forced to give up its latent heat of vaporization. The condenser generates a vacuum which increases the amount of energy extracted from the steam by the turbine. The stability of operation and the efficiency of the power plant depend on the efficiency of steam condenser operation. These things go to developing a dynamic model of steam condenser.
