How boilers are classified?

A high pressure steam boiler is boiler in which steam is generated at pressure exceeding 15 psig and operates hot water boiler above 160 psig or 250o F. Application this type usually is used for utility plants, big industrial plants and process application. A high pressure steam boiler can be named as Power Boiler, in which design and construction rule following to rules of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section I - Power Boiler.

Why does your furnace circulate hot water through baseboard elements when the thermostats are not calling for heat?

not sure of your application but possibly the pump on the boiler is set to run continuously and the thermostat energises the boiler itself.

What is Lancashire boiler?

The Lancashire boiler comprised a large steel shell usually between 5 - 9 m long through which passed two large-bore furnace tubes called flues. Part of each flue was corrugated to take up the expansion when the boiler became hot, and to prevent collapse under pressure. A furnace was installed at the entrance to each flue, at the front end of the boiler. Typically, the furnace would be arranged to burn coal, being either manually or automatically stoked. The hot gaseous products of combustion passed from the furnace through the large-bore corrugated flues. Heat from the hot flue gases was transferred into the water surrounding these flues. The boiler was in a brickwork setting which was arranged to duct the hot gases emerging from the flues downwards and beneath the boiler, transferring heat through the bottom of the boiler shell, and secondly back along the sides of the boiler before exiting through the stack. These two side ducts met at the back of the boiler and fed into the chimney. These passes were an attempt to extract the maximum amount of energy from the hot product gases before they were released to atmosphere. Later, the efficiency was improved by the addition of an economiser. The gas stream, after the third pass, passed through the economiser into the chimney. The economiser heated the feedwater and resulted in an improvement in thermal efficiency. One of the disadvantages of the Lancashire boiler was that repeated heating and cooling of the boiler, with the resultant expansion and contraction that occurred, upset the brickwork setting and ducting. This resulted in the infiltration of air, which upset the furnace draught. These boilers would now be very expensive to produce, due to the large amounts of material used and the labour required to build the brick setting.
