Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013117730A2] A water/steam cycle comprises a steam generator, a steam turbine, a water cooled condenser (13) and a feedwater pump, whereby the condenser (13) comprises within a condenser shell (28) at least one tube bundle (18) with an internal air cooler (21), which is connected to an external ejector/vacuum pump (25) by means of a suction line (23). In order to reduce the condenser evacuation time at the start-up of the water/steam cycle (10) without using auxiliary steam an additional evacuation line (26) with a motorized isolating valve (27) connects the external ejector/vacuum pump (25) with the condenser shell (28). The action of the isolating valve (27) is controlled by means of a control (29).
