ABSTRACT: Condenser is one of the important auxiliary equipments in
nuclear power plants. The thermal efficiency of the entire unit was depended on
the condenser performance. Cleanliness factor and condenser corrected pressure
are the two most important evaluation indexes. The definition and derivation of
these two evaluation indexes were elaborated and clarified in this paper. And
the condenser performance at variable conditions was analyzed. The seawater
temperature, pipe plugging rate and seawater volume rate effect on unit output
was calculated. The calculation method was simple, which can provide reference
guidance for similar power plant.
