Abstract
Gland Steam Condensor (GSC) is a heat exchanger it condenses steam from a
turbine shaft seal. This used steam will heat condensate water from a condensate
pump which is flowed across Gland Steam condensor. Because the heat is
absorbed by condensate water, used steam from the shaft seal will condense and
then flow to hotwell until it mixes with hotwell water. From the results of the
study the highest heat transfer coefficient on the tube is 80,491.93 btu/hr on
Wednesday at 2:00 p.m. It is known that the heat transfer coefficient on the lowest
tube is 79,011.94 btu/hr on Monday at 4:00 p.m. The highest heat transfer
coefficient on the shell is 5,294,695 btu/hr on Friday at 14:00, the lowest shell
heat transfer coefficient is 2,762,553 btu/hr on Tuesdayat 11: 00. The highest
actual heat transfer is 1,528,694.1 btu/hr on Friday at 2:00 p.m., the lowest actual
heat transfer is 713,159,522 btu/hr on Thursday at 8:00. It is known that the
maximum heat transfer rate is 1,797,918 btu/hr at 2:00 p.m., the maximum heat
transfer rate is 790,348 btu/hr on Thursday at 8:00. It is known that the highest
efficiency is 90.25% on Thursday at 8:00. With average efficiency between the
range of 86.29%
