Turbine back pressure is the performance parameter with the largest impact on power plant unit efficiency. The condenser is the component that maintains turbine back pressure at levels that promote high efficiency. Therefore, understanding condenser efficiency and operation is necessary to reach optimum power plant unit efficiency and reliability.

The Condenser Efficiency training course explains how to evaluate and maintain this efficiency. This online course covers:

• Key parameters
• Efficiency calculation
• Heat transfer
• Performance curves

Condenser Efficiency is part of the Efficiency, Reliability, and Environmentally Sensitive Operations training series.
