That makes sense, and I guess the concern they have is that if discharge of the nozzle is not the same as the condenser pressure, the butterfly valve upstream of it all will cavitate.
His scenario is as follows: water pressure at 50psig. Takes a 20psig drop through control valve, so we now...
Hello,
I am working on a direct contact condenser design, and have a differing opinion with a colleague. They want the pressure coming out of the water spray nozzle to be equal to condenser pressure (.6psia). Since this is on a fresh water line they are putting in a pressure reducing valve...
