2. Steam drum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_drum

   Bi drum boiler – are used for power generation and steam generation both. For power generation they are used now seldom and are replaced by single drum boilers as the bi drum boilers are non-reheat units. So, due to the high heat rate of the plant a single drum boiler or a once through boiler is more feasible.

3. Boiler blowdown - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_blowdown

   A steam boiler evaporates liquid water to form steam, or gaseous water, and requires frequent replenishment of boiler feedwater for the continuous production of steam required by most boiler applications. Water is a capable solvent, and will dissolve small amounts of solids from piping and containers including the boiler.

A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.

6. Boiler design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_design

   Boiler design is the process of designing boilers used for various purposes. The main function of a boiler is to heat water to generate steam. Steam produced in a boiler can be used for a variety of purposes including space heating, sterilisation, drying, humidification and power generation. The temperature or condition of steam required for ...

7. Boiler (power generation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_(power_generation)

   The steam piping (with steam flowing through it) is directed through the flue gas path in the boiler furnace. This area typically is between 1,300–1,600 °C (2,372–2,912 °F ). Some superheaters are radiant type (absorb heat by thermal radiation ), others are convection type (absorb heat via a fluid i.e. gas) and some are a combination of ...

   Water drum see mud drum Water-tube boiler a boiler whose primary heating surface is composed of many small tubes, filled with water. Tubes of 3 inch diameter and above are termed "large-tube" boilers. Later water-tube designs used smaller "small-tubes" of 2 inches or less. Wet bottom furnace

9. Spiral watertube boiler - Wikipedia

   The Lune Valley boiler was a small oil-fired boiler, used by the Lune Valley Engineering Co. of Lancaster, England for steam launches and small steamboats. [7] [8] Each steam generator tube consisted of three turns, giving a greater heating surface for the number of pipe joints to be made. These coils were still arranged in tiers.
