Question 173Steam Plants - QMED
70% to passAccording to the illustrated steam and HP bleed system diagram, which steam pressure reducing station has the lowest set point? Illustration SG-0005
ATank cleaning seawater heater
BMain boiler burner steam atomizers and turbine gland seal regulators
CMain, auxiliary, and distilling plant air ejectors
DShip's whistle
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Tank cleaning seawater heater. The tank cleaning seawater heater would have the lowest set point pressure among the options provided, as it requires the least amount of steam pressure to operate effectively. The other options, such as the main boiler burner steam atomizers, turbine gland seal regulators, and air ejectors, typically require higher steam pressures to function properly. The ship's whistle does not directly rely on the steam pressure reducing system, so it is not the correct answer.
