Question 75Steam Plants - QMED
70% to passHigh pressure and low pressure drain systems are part of the _______________.
The correct answer is B) condensate drain system. High pressure and low pressure drain systems are part of the condensate drain system, which is responsible for collecting and removing condensate (water) that forms in the steam system of a ship's boiler. The condensate drain system ensures that water does not accumulate in the steam piping, which could lead to water hammer and other issues. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the drain systems for the condensate produced in the boiler. The auxiliary turbine bleed system, boiler drain system, and contaminated drain system serve different functions in the ship's engineering systems.
