Choosing a sensor to measure the pH of high-conductivity boiler water is fairly straightforward.Learn More
(iii). Boiler Explosion: When thick scales crack due to uneven expansion, the water comes suddenly in contact with over-heated iron plates. This causes in formation of a large amount of steam suddenly. So sudden high-pressure is developed, which may even cause explosion of the boiler. 6. Explain prevention of scales formation.Learn More
Energy in fuel enters the boiler (energy input 100 percent). From the boiler, 4 percent of heat loss is through radiation and convection, 18 percent is in flue gasses and 3 percent is in blowdown. Energy in heating medium (e.g. steam) exits the boiler. Energy output (boiler thermal efficiency) is between 75 and 77 percent.Learn More
A boiler is an appliance designed to heat water and produce energy. The heat is applied to water in an enclosed container before being distributed throughout the system. The major difference between a low-pressure and a high-pressure boiler is the amount of pressure per square inch and pounds per square inch gauge that the boiler produces.Learn More
Dec 21, 2020 · Water Tube Boiler Components. Here is a review of the water tube boiler parts and functions.. Boiler Shell: This shell is the external cylindrical part of a pressure container.

It will gather impurities like mud, sediment, and others.Learn More
Apr 12, 2020 · A boiler is a steel pressure vessel in which water under pressure is converted into steam by the application of combustion. In other words, it is simply a heat exchanger which uses radiant heat and hot flue gases, liberated from burning fuel, to generate steam and hot water for heating and processing loads.Learn More

Explain with neat diagrams of any four boiler mountings used in the steam boilers? 7. What are the major advantages of high pressure boilers? 8.Learn More
A system boiler is a sealed system that only requires a boiler and a cylinder, whilst a regular boiler may require a header tanks in the loft to feed the hot water cylinder and to maintain the water level in the radiators. For this reason, system boilers are often the preferred choice unless there are specific reasons why a regular boiler may Learn More
To maintain boiler integrity and performance and to provide steam of suitable turbine or process purity, boiler feedwater must be purified and chemically conditioned. The amount and nature of feedwater impurities that can be accommodated depend on boiler operating pressure, boiler design, steam purity requirements, type of boiler water internal treatment, blowdown rate, and …Learn More
(or) Name an internal method used for high pressure boiler and explain. (Dec 2011) Phosphate salts are used as internal boiler compounds for high pressure boilers. Phosphates precipitate the soluble Ca and Mg salts as their insoluble phosphates. They are also helpful in maintaining the pH of the boiler water. 3CaSO 4 + 2 Na 3PO 4 Ca 3(PO 4)Learn More
