How does heat get from inside the boiler to the wall behind the radiator?
Conduction of heat energy from the source to the water in the boiler. A pump moves the hot water to the radiator.The heat radiates out from the radiator to the air, where convection then circulates it through the room.
What does a boiler look like?
The boiler itself consists of two principal parts: the furnace, which provides heat, usually by burning fuel, and the boiler proper, in which water is converted to steam by the heat piped in from the furnace.

Is boiler and furnace are same?
No, furnaces are forced air heat. Boilers are hot water heat.
What are your options for changing my hot water setup when my water is heated by a oil boiler now?
The best option is to put in a separate water heater for the summer and and other warm months when you don't need to run the boiler for heat. When it is winter and the boiler is running to heat the house it will heat the potable water as well. By switching back and forth you will save money on your oil bill.
What are the function of boiler?
One function: to safely heat water. Whatever the resulting hot water or steam is used for is not a function of the boiler, but the system it is connected to.
What principle is being used when heat is transmitted between the boiler and cylinder in a hot water system?
heat is transmitted by gravity between the boiler and cylinder ina hot water system. this is using the principle of?
How is steam produced in a boiler?
Steam is generated by heat from the combution of fuel in a furnace or by waste heat from a process. The heat is transferred to water in the boiler shell, which then evaporates to produce steam under pressure.
What are the most common boiler problems?
The most common boiler problems often arise because the boiler is not maintained. One is that in hard water areas the element is furred up and so it is not able to heat up the water as it should. Another is that the insulation is shifted and so no longer covers the boiler and keeps the heat in.
Why economiser is used in boiler?
An economizer is used to heat boiler feedwater up closer to the temperature of the boiler water, using heat from the boiler exhaust gases, heat that would otherwise be wasted. The main reason is to improve the efficiency of the boiler. For every 44 degree F drop in exhaust gas temp. there is an 11 F rise in feedwater temperature and a 1% gain in boiler efficiency.
What is ships boiler?
Some older ships used the power of steam to propel them through the water. A boiler is used to heat water to make steam which is passed to a steam engine which turns the propeller. In ships like the Titanic the boiler was fuelled by coal but later steam ships used gas to heat the water.
Why water demineralized used in a boiler?
In water a lot of impurities are present when we use such water it will produce slice formation inside the tube of boiler due to which there is slice formation takes place and heat will not transfer properly . temperature of the boiler tubes are about 1400 degree centigrade.if heat is not flow properly through tubes then tubes will melt.
