  1. Definition of Boilers • Boiler • Vessel that heats water to become hot water or steam • At atmospheric pressure water volume increases 1,600 times • Hot water or steam used to transfer heat to a process

  2. Types of Boilers • Fire Tube Boiler • Water Tube Boiler • Packaged Boiler • Fluidized Bed (FBC) Boiler • Stoker Fired Boiler • Pulverized Fuel Boiler • Waste Heat Boiler • Thermic Fluid Heater (not a boiler!)

  3. Boilers for Various Applications

  4. Boilers • Babcock and Wilcox • Benson • Cochran • Cornish • Lamont • Lancashire • Stirling • Velox

  5. Boilers based on Firing 1. Fire Tube Boiler is • Relatively small steam capacities (12,000 kg/hour) • Low to medium steam pressures (18 kg/cm2) • Operates with oil, gas or solid fuels (Light Rail Transit Association)

  6. Type of Boilers 2. Water Tube Boiler is • Used for high steam demand and pressure requirements • Capacity range of 4,500 – 120,000 kg/hour • Combustion efficiency enhanced by induced draft provisions • Lower tolerance for water quality and needs water treatment plant (Your Dictionary.com)

  7. Assessment of a Boiler Heat Balance Balancing total energy entering a boiler against the energy that leaves the boiler in different forms 12.7 % Heat loss due to dry flue gas BOILER 8.1 % Heat loss due to steam in flue gas 1.7 % 100.0 % Heat loss due to moisture in fuel 0.3 % Fuel Heat loss due to moisture in air 2.4 % Heat loss due to un-burnts in residue 1.0 % Heat loss due to radiation & other unaccounted loss 73.8 % 73.8 % Heat in Steam

  8. Mountings and Accessories • Fitting and devices which are necessary for the safety and control are knows as boiler mountings • Fitting or devices which are provided to increase the efficiency of the boiler and help in the smooth working of the plant are knows as boiler accessories

  9. Fittings - Safety • Water level indicators • Safety valves • Combined high steam and low water safety valve • Fusible plug

  10. Fittings - Control • Pressure gauge • Junction or stop valve • Feed check valve • Blow-off cock • Man hole and Mud Box
