In jet type condensers___________?
Correct answer: C. steam and cooling water mix
- A. cooling water passes through tubes and steam surrounds them
- B. steam passes through tubes and cooling water surrounds them
- C. steam and cooling water mix
- D. steam and cooling water do not mix
Explanation
Jet condensers are direct-contact condensers, so cooling water comes into direct contact and mixes with the exhaust steam. This differs from surface condensers, where tubes keep the two fluids separate.
