Condensing equipment

Abstract

A condensing equipment including a plurality of condensers having shells different in longitudinal lengths are arranged in parallel, and the condensers are connected in series by circulation water pipes. The center positions in a shell length direction of the respective condensers are made to differ in the length direction. The lengths of an inlet side circulation water pipe and an outlet side circulation pipe of condensers adjacent to each other among the condensers are made coincident with each other.

1 . A condensing equipment in which a plurality of condensers having shells different lengths in longitudinal direction from each other are arranged in parallel with each other and connected in series by circulation water pipes, wherein the respective condensers have center positions different in level in the longitudinal direction of the shells, respectively, and an inlet side circulation water pipe of one condenser and an outlet side circulation pipe of the condenser adjacent to the above one condenser among the condensers are arranged so as to be made coincident in length with each other. 
   
   
       2 . A condensing equipment in which a steam generated at a power plant is supplied to a steam turbine to thereby drive a generator and a discharged steam is cooled into condensate by a plurality of condensers arranged in parallel with each other, wherein the plurality of condensers having shells different in lengths in longitudinal direction from each other are arranged in parallel with each other and connected in series by circulation water pipes, in which the respective condensers have center positions different in level in the longitudinal direction of the shells, respectively, and an inlet side circulation water pipe of one condenser and an outlet side circulation pipe of the condenser adjacent to the above one condenser among the condensers are arranged so as to be made coincident in length with each other. 
   
   
       3 . The condensing equipment according to  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of condensers are arranged such that a cooling water outlet of one condenser and a cooling water inlet of another condenser adjacent to the above one condenser are aligned in positions thereof to thereby create a space in a vicinity of the condenser and a condensate pump is disposed in the space. 
   
   
       4 . The condensing equipment according to  claim 1 , wherein three condensers having different sizes are arranged such that a cooling water outlet of one condenser and a cooling water inlet of another condenser adjacent to the above one condenser are aligned in positions thereof to thereby create a space in a vicinity of a central condenser, and a drainage recovery pipe is connected in the space. 
   
   
       5 . The condensing equipment according to  claim 2 , wherein the plurality of condensers are arranged such that a cooling water outlet of one condenser and a cooling water inlet of another condenser adjacent to the above one condenser are aligned in positions thereof to thereby create a space in a vicinity of the condenser and a condensate pump is disposed in the space. 
   
   
       6 . The condensing equipment according to  claim 2 , wherein three condensers having different sizes are arranged such that a cooling water outlet of one condenser and a cooling water inlet of another condenser adjacent to the above one condenser are aligned in positions thereof to thereby create a space in a vicinity of a central condenser, and a drainage recovery pipe is connected in the space.
