An integrated heat-distributing system of nuclear and conventional power plants

An integral heat distribution system is designed for nuclear as well as fossil-fuel power plants. It comprises at least one takeoff piping leading from the turbine body and ending in the steam heating space. This space contains a heat-exchange body for the heat distribution which is integrated with the recovery heat-exchange body. It is recommended that the heating condensate takeoff system be constituted by a separate collector with piping for the recovery section and a separate collector with piping for the heat distribution section. This heat distribution system simplifies the heating and piping design of the turbine hall and in some instances enables additional heat takeoff, provided that adaptations of the turbine hall are made.
