Best Answer

There are many factors.

First of all, there is the temperature of the water. Next, the is the volume of water. Next there is the amount of pressure gradually built up in the boiler. Next you have the amount and speed at which heat is transferred to the water.

Is boiler a closed system?

A boiler can be a closed system if you include the pipes it is connected to, but usually there are relief valves that will allow the escape of steam to protect against excess pressure and inlets that will allow adding liquid to the boiler to make up for fluid lost from the pressure valves. Also most boilers are imperfectly sealed so they leak a little bit. If you do not consider the attached piping, then a boiler would not be considered a closed system since it would be constantly sending out steam and receiving condensate in return.


What is Effect of relative humidity on water evaporation?

humidity effects the evaporation in the following ways: 1. In a closed container rate of evaporation will have a lesser value than usual.but there will be no decrease in the rate.


When pilot light goes out on a boiler is gas escaping?

No. The pilot valve is closed when no flame is sensed by the thermocouple.


Can evaporation of water take place in a closed room without a fan?

Yes. Until the humidity reaches 100 %.

Why transpiration does not takes place at night?

since photosynthesis does not take place at night, stomata is closed, thus, water evaporation will cease


What is a tricock valve?

It is a small, valve usually used to manually check if water is above the valve connection on a boiler or tank. There may be several of them at different heights on the boiler or tank. There is a handwheel on the valve, an inlet connection (which is attached to the boiler) and an outlet (usually left unconnected). When filling the boiler or tank, the try-cocks can be left open. Water coming from the try-cock means the tank is filled to at least that level. The valve is then closed.


How do close formula feeds differ from open formula feeds?

The feed system cycles between boiler and turbine and enables the steam to return to the boiler as feed water. A closed feed cycles a main propulsion steam run turbine through a high pressure water tube boiler. The condenser, set to a high vacuum, will receive the steam turbine exhaust.

Why is an umbrella opened to dry?

When the umbrella is opened its surface is now bigger than if it was closed. If the surface is bigger, the water evaporation will occur faster.
