Question: 1 / 400

True or False: In a closed feedwater system, steam condenses and becomes part of the feedwater.

True

In a closed feedwater system, the steam does indeed condense and becomes part of the feedwater. This process is essential for maintaining efficiency and conserving water in the system. As steam travels through the system, it releases heat energy and changes back into liquid water, which is then returned to the feedwater tank to be reheated and sent back to the boiler.

The statement that this is false is not accurate because, in practice, the condensation of steam in a closed feedwater system is a fundamental principle that allows for the effective recycling of water, enhancing the thermal efficiency of the boiler system. Thus, the correct understanding is that in a closed system, the condensation of steam contributes positively to the feedwater supply.
