How vacuum is created?
Basic vacuum created in the LPT exhaust side is because of condensing process. Phase change is occurring at the exhaust side i.e. conversion of steam into water. Specific volume of water is much lower than the steam.Hence when the condensing process happens, volume of steam reduces and basic vacuum is created.
Apart from this, vacuum pumps are provided to remove non condensable gases/air ingress which reduces heat transfer effectiveness.
Why vacuum is created?
To improve LPT cylinder efficiency & thus the load/work done shall be improved.
Effect of over vacuum?
It causes sub-cooling effect where hot well temperature reduces more than design which required to be added in boiler leads to heat loss. Also flow accelerated erosion in LPT last stages.
Effect of under vacuum?
LPT efficiency reduction which causes lesser work done & leads to reduced load output.

Define what is difference between fuse and breaker?
in cvt,there are two windings,1a,1n and 2a,2n.in my one project i use only one winding i.e.1a,1n. the other winding is not in use, so i connect it in open delta and want to close it by ibsertibg thermal resistor. the output of cvt is 132kv/115/sqrt3. plesae tell me exact value of resistor, so i may close it to avoid the resonance phenomenin. send me answer on this email adress please. aetcon-po@aetcon.com
