NON-CONFIDENTIAL 1 Response IR-15: (cont'd) 2 3 f) The original design was based on modeling software using engineering principals and 4 provided full operating range for the plant. The modeling identified a need to limit 5 CW cooling for...

AI summary The response discusses the original design of a plant based on engineering models and the need to limit cooling water (CW) pump usage under minimum load conditions. It also notes that detailed engineering using OEM data indicated a split design would be more suitable for the operating conditions.

Condenser Condenser specification involves matching its operating performance, (i.e. temperature and backpressure) to the turbine as well as taking into consideration long-term maintenance aspects such as cathodic protection, protective co...

AI summary NSPI's condenser design for a thermal generation project involves balancing seawater cooling efficiency with technical challenges, including higher backpressure requirements, elevated condenser positioning, and cost implications. The design includes a divided waterbox for maintenance flexibility and references UARB IR-14 for technical correspondence.
