Summary:
Understanding the environmental impact of hot water discharge from the condenser of a steam power plant is of considerable importance in helping to preserve aquatic life and also the overall efficiency of the power plant. In recent years, with the improvement of computing facilities, a number of different types of mathematical models have been developed to predict such effects. These models, if properly calibrated are extremely useful in determining the complete environmental impact arising due to normal as well as abnormal operating conditions, which may be difficult to realise experimentally. This is particularly important with respect to estimating these adverse effects during the planning stages, thus helping to minimize them in the final construction.
