A sectional diagram of a typical steam boiler feed injector, simplified to show the major parts common to such injectors, showing typical proportions, and using colour and shading to hint at temperature, pressure, and velocity variations in the fluid flows. The SVG was hand coded using a text editor.
The steam injector is a common device used for delivering water to steam boilers, especially in steam locomotives. It is a typical application of the injector principle used to deliver cold water to a boiler against its own pressure, using its own live or exhaust steam, replacing any mechanical pump.

English: HMS Belfast, diagram of the boiler. The water comes (8), and goes into pipes (9). Warmed by the combustion of the fuel (came in 3), steam bubbles forming in these pipes, and arrives in the drum (7). Then steam goes (through 6) in smaller pipes (10) and being superheated here. At last, superheated steam goes to engine room (5).
German example. Note the steam dome, a typically German feature, and also the corrugated furnaces. A "Scotch" marine boiler (or simply Scotch boiler) is a design of steam boiler best known for its use on ships. Sectional diagram of a "wet back" boiler. The general layout is that of a squat horizontal cylinder.
It also principally links into the fuel injection article which has undergone massive additions over the last year bringing it up to a reasonably good standard, which is assisted by this diagram. It is a nice size (especially for an animated diagram) and quality is high. Proposed caption An animated cut away diagram of a typical fuel injector.
