INTRODUCTION
This course covers the function, construction, operation of both air and water-cooled condensers along with related devices. Furthermore it discusses cooling towers and spray ponds, including maintenance and troubleshooting. It includes a section on evaporative condensers along with a discussion of water-related problems and how to solve them.
PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES
- Understanding the construction of an air-cooled condenser
- Understanding the effects of ambient temperature on the capacity of an air-cooled condenser.
- Understanding the various types of low-ambient controls for air-cooled condensers.
- Learning the List the periodic maintenance procedures common to most air-cooled condensers.
- Learning the construction of the various kinds of water-cooled condensers.
- Understanding the water-cooled condenser maintenance procedures
- Learning the function of cooling towers and spray ponds and the factors that affect their capacities.
