The Steam Cycle Diagram result screen shows the steam cycle:

PC: GET RESULTS: Base Plant: 3. Steam Cycle: Steam Cycle Diagram

The following values are displayed:

1.Total Steam Flow: This is the steam flow rate circulating in the boiler system.

2.Boiler Blowdown: This is the amount of feedwater removed on order to reduce the suspended solids that have accumulated in the cooling water system.

3.Demin. Out: The demineralizer regenerant waste is produced during the regeneration cycle of makeup water in the condensate polisher ion exchange beds. The waste contains salts of the material removed from the water and an excess of the regenerant.

4.Misc. Steam Loss: This is the steam flow rate lost due to leaks in the boiler system.

5.Cooling Water: This is the cooling water required for the steam cycle.

6.Boiler Makeup: This is the flow rate of boiler makeup water into the demineralizer system.
