Sorry but I didn't see an explaination for #6....can someone shed some light on it for me?
I'm not sure if I did it right and I know I guess on it for sure
The exhaust steam in a one-cylinder steam engine is condensed:
A. to recover the heat originally used to vaporize water into steam for evaporating more water in the boiler
B. so that the fluid is more dense and better able to flow through the pump
C. so that the piston does not overheat and expand
D. in order to reduce the pressure in the condenser, to allow vapor to escape from the piston when the exhaust valve is open
I chose (c) but it was more of a guess. I think I saw a thread about this last year but no one answered? I don't know the answer. =/
Thanks
