Before entering the LP [low-pressure] turbine, the steam passes through intercept valves. In a fashion similar to the emergency stop valve, these valves shut off steam to the LP turbine in an emergency. Steam passes through the normally open intercept valve, passes through the low-pressure turbine, and is then exhausted to the condenser... 1, record 2, English, - intercept%20valve

Avant de pénétrer dans la turbine basse-pression, la vapeur doit traverser des vannes d'interception. Tout comme la vanne d'arrêt d'urgence, ces vannes permettent, en cas d'urgence, d'isoler la turbine basse-pression. En condition normale, la vapeur franchit la vanne d'interception ouverte, s'écoule dans la turbine basse-pression d'où elle ressort pour passer au condenseur. 1, record 2, French, - vanne%20d%27interception

The boiler feed pumps(BFP) take suction from the deaerator storage tank and raise the feedwater pressure to between 4 and 7 MPa. The pump discharges the high-pressure feedwater to the high-pressure(HP) feedheaters. The HP feedheaters heat the feedwater to about 170°C. HP feedheater operation and construction are similar to that of the LP feedheaters. Extraction steam from the HP turbine normally supplies the heating medium. 1, record 4, English, - high%2Dpressure%20feedheater

Cette pompe décharge l'eau d'alimentation sous pression dans les réchauffeurs à haute pression. Ces réchauffeurs poussent la température de l'eau d'alimentation jusqu'à environ 170 °C. Le fonctionnement et la construction du réchauffeur à haute pression sont analogues à ceux du réchauffeur à basse pression. La source normale de chaleur est la vapeur soutirée de la turbine haute-pression. 1, record 4, French, - r%C3%A9chauffeur%20%C3%A0%20haute%20pression
