Having worked in the turbines industry for 10 years, I can explain that the main difference between a condensing steam turbine and a back pressure steam turbine lies in how they handle exhaust steam. A condensing steam turbine exhausts steam into a condenser where it is cooled and converted back into water, allowing the turbine to operate at a lower pressure, which typically results in higher efficiency.
On the other hand, a back pressure steam turbine exhausts steam directly into a process or heating system, utilizing the remaining energy for other applications instead of condensing it. This type of turbine is often used in industrial processes where the steam’s heat energy is needed elsewhere. At NCON Turbines, we specialize in both types and can help you choose the best solution for your specific needs.
