The boiler pressure should be set lower than 25% of the safety valve setting 3. The boiler pressure should be set at highest value possible for efficiency Select one: a. 1, 2, 3 b. 1 c. 2, 3 d. 2 e.
Read MoreAug 05, 2018 · High high water level : If water at level H1 is not acknowledged, the feed water pump will stop at level H2, therefore cutting water supply to the boiler drum, the feed pump stop to prevent the drum of boiler from excessive hydraulic pressure exerted by the feed water, which may explode the boiler drum (at least weaken it).
Read MoreConfigurations : Single drum / Bi Drum; Application : Power & Process; AFBC boilers offer efficient, cost-effective and reliable steam generation. The benefits include fuel flexibility, high efficiency, low emissions, and reduced capital and operating expenses. Our boilers are ideal for burning fuels containing high ash and high Sulphur content.

Read MoreThe pressure of steam inside the boiler is high, and so the feed water pressure must be raised before its entry into the boiler for consistent operation. Feed pump is a device which raises the pressure of water and forces it into the boiler. Feed water pressure must overcome the steam pressure for a steady flow of water to the boiler.

The safety valve operates in the principle that a valve is pressed against its seat through some agency such as sturt, screw or spring by external weight or force, when the steam force
Read MoreCornish boiler. These are the earliest form of high pressure fire tube boiler. These consist of long horizontal cylinder with single large flue containing fire. Fuel is added in the grate area where it burn to produce hot gases. The hot gases transfer the heat to the water. Water takes heat and after some time it starts boiling to produce steam.
Read MoreHigh-pressure boiler: The maximum pressure is more than 80 bars. Sub-critical boiler: If the boiler produces steam at a pressure that is less than the critical pressure it is known as sub-critical. Supercritical boiler: These boilers are used to produce steam at a pressure which is greater than the critical pressure.
Read MoreDemineralizers can produce high-purity water for nearly every use. Demineralized water is widely used for high pressure boiler feedwater and for many process waters. The quality of water produced is comparable to distilled water, usually at a fraction of the cost. Demineralizers come in a wide variety of sizes.
