Review of the vacuum decay test in air-cooled steam condensers

Polemic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Engineering - System Science, , language: English, abstract: Condensing the capacity of air-cooled condensers is critical for proper functionality of steam cycles in power plants. Condensers operate in the low vacuum regime to promote the efficiency of power generation. Leakages enable ingress of ambient air into the steam cycle and thus impede conde...
