Question 203Steam Plants - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is A) first-stage heater, gland exhaust condenser, and drain cooler. The feed water heater shown in the illustration is comprised of three separately functioning heat exchangers: the first-stage heater, the gland exhaust condenser, and the drain cooler. This is the correct identification of the three components that make up the feed water heater system. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the three components of the feed water heater system as depicted in the illustration SG-0025. Options B, C, and D list different combinations of heat exchangers that do not match the specific components of the feed water heater shown in the illustration.
