What is the difference between back pressure steam turbine and condensate steam turbine?

In a back pressure turbine all available energy from the inlet steam is NOT used to generate power; steam exhausts at a tangible pressure and is then used for, usually, heating or chemical processing. In a condensing turbine, all the inlet steam does mechanical work right down to the lowest pressureafter which it is condensed in a heat exchanger


Should the cold-water inlet and hot-water outlet be the same size on a 50-gallon electric water heater?

The inlet and outlets are the same size on a tank, weather your plumbing is the same size should be the question. This is not critical, but they should be the same,if there is no backflow restrictor on a plubic line and the inlet is larger then the outlet,then you could be pushing hot water into the pubic line. New installs recommend an expansion tank,but few people install them,unless they get water hammer,knocking sounds. But most new water heaters have a restrictor built into the inlet. There is no difference between gas and electric, the water does not know how it is being heated.
