[0002] The condenser is a crucial piece of equipment in the steam power system of a power plant's steam turbine. Its main function is to condense the steam discharged from the turbine into water for recycling. While fulfilling its function, the condenser requires a large amount of circulating water from a pump as a cooling source, and these pumps are among the biggest energy consumers in power plants. This process of cooling the turbine's exhaust water results in a significant loss and waste of heat and energy.
