What is a pressure boiler?

The boilers which produces steam of pressure 80 bar or more than 80 bar are called high pressure boilers.

Why carbonate conditioning is not possible in high pressure boilers?

It may lead to caustic embrittlement.


What is the maximum pressure of high pressure boiler?

The highest pressure boiler that I ever saw as a marine Chief Engineer was 2400 psi or 80 atmospheres. The US Navy operated 1200 psi boilers for many years. High pressure steam generators in Nuclear plants are usually limited to 600 psi due to the lack of superheating. There are higher pressure boilers for specific applications but these are few and far between. Any boiler over 2400psi carries with it many safety concerns and is problematic to both build and maintain.


What is the original source for wind?

Wind blows from high pressure zones to low pressure zones. It does not have a source, it is produced by differences in pressure between different areas.


In boiler where is highest pressure?

STEAM High pressure 15 PSI Hot water boilers 160 PSI and or 250 DEGREES F


What happens when a high pressure system moves in where a low pressure system already is?

Typically the area between the systems gets high winds because of the differences in circulation such as a high pressure spins clockwise and low pressure system spins counter clockwise.


What is the similarities between a cyclone and an anticyclone?

Both are large scale circulations in the atmosphere created by pressure differences. A cyclone has a low pressure center and an anticyclone has a high pressure center.


Which direction does the wind blow in relationship to pressure differences Why?

Wind blows from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas. It does this simply because nature is trying to restore a balance between the different pressure areas.


Pressure differences between warm and cold air masses cause what?

Pressure differences between warm and cold air masses cause fronts or high/low pressure systems. A warm front is when a warm, moist air mass slides up and over a cold air mass, and a cold front is the opposite.


What is wind the result of?

Wind is the result of differences in pressure in the atmosphere and flows between air masses. It moves from high-pressure to low-pressure regions, in an attempt to even out all different barometric pressures.
