Practice Test: Question Set - 01


1. The thermal efficiency of the engine with condenser as compared to without condenser, for a given pressure and temperature of steam, is
    (A) Higher
    (B) Lower
    (C) Same as long as initial pressure and temperature is unchanged
    (D) None of the above

2. In a regenerative surface condenser
