What is circulation ratio of boiler?
circulation ration of boiler is defined as ratio of Mass of Steam/water mixture to steam generation.
Which is better fire tube boiler or water tube boiler?
The words are literal , a water tube boiler is water inside the tubes with hot gases surrounding them and a fire tube boiler are got gases within the tubes with water surrounding them.
What are the 2 main types of boilers?
Fire tube and water tube. Steam Boiler and Water Boiler.
What is the comparison between forced circulation and natural circulation boilers?
Natural circulationForce circulation1.In Natural circulation boiler the circulation is done by means of nature.In Forced circulation Boiler the circulation is done by the means of pumps.2.These type boilers are low capacity boilers.These type boilers are of high capacity boilers.3.The heating of boiler parts is not uniform, so, there are chances of differential expansion of parts and hence chances of cracks are maximum.The heating of boiler parts is uniform, so, there is no chance of differential expansion of parts and hence chances of cracks are minimum.4.These boilers take maximum time from cold start.These boilers take minimum time from cold start.5.There is a scale formation between the water tubes and hence blockage of pipes.There is no scale formation between the water tubes and hence no blockage of pipes.6.These boilers produce lesser steam and have low pressure steam.These boilers produce steam at 30 to 650 tons per hour, at the temp of temp. & 160 bar pressure.
What is a back boiler?
A back boiler is a boiler which supplies a central heating and hot water system and is fitted into the recess of a fireplace.
What is circulation ratio of boiler?
circulation ration of boiler is defined as ratio of Mass of Steam/water mixture to steam generation.
How does the water flow in an old cast iron radiator?
The boiler has a circulation pump that circulate the water
Can poor circulation cause you to be cold?
Yes because water can't get through the pipes in your boiler
Who invented the corner tube boiler?
November 12, 1944, the first basic patent for Corner Tube Boilers (= Eckrohrkessel, Berlin, Germany) was applied for. During this time oil as fuel ran short. All efforts, to save energy and use domestic and alternate resources, were to be made. One came up with an idea, to operate cars and trucks, not on gasoline or diesel fuel, but with steam.Dr. Vorkauf, a specialist for water circulation in boilers, especially in La Mont boilers (forced circulation boilers), got the order to design a small boiler for a steam engine fired with coal or wood. The result was not as expected a forced circulation boiler, but a natural circulation boiler. A forced circulation boiler of this size would have been too costly.Due to his experience with the La Mont boiler Dr. Vorkauf had the idea to obtain a pre-separation of the steam - water mixture in front of the drum. An extremely lively water circulation resulted from unheated downcomers and a suitable arrangement of the mixture tubes. The unheated downcomers were installed in the 4 corners of the boiler, where they not only served the purpose of water circulation, but also as a support frame for the boiler. The boiler with such an arrangement of the downcomers in the corners was called Corner Tube Boiler (Eckrohrkessel, Eckrohr-Boiler).
What is the mechanical principle used by a boiler service system?
In modern boiler service systems today, many use a mechanical principle known as forced circulation. Boilers are forced to use this method as the pressure inside the boiler is very high, which means the boiler will have to manually force the water/liquid mixture to circulate so that any progress can be made.
What is the explanation for the working of a benson boiler?
Benson Boiler is a water tube high pressure boiler having forced circulation. It works on the principle that if the boiler pressure is raised to critical pressure (225 kg/cm^2) then there is no formation of steam bubbles Because the steam and water at this pressure will have the same Density. To achieve this water is fed to the boiler at critical pressure . At this pressure water will be directly converted to superheated steam as the latent heat at critical pressure is zero. Overall efficiency of plant is decreased as a lot of energy is consumed by feed water. Operating the boiler at a slightly lower pressure than the critical pressure efficiency can be increased. Thermal efficiency upto 90% can be achieved.
At what size is a hot water heater considered a boiler?
NONE a boiler is a boiler and a water heater is a water heaterSEE ASME section IV or the NBBI
What is boiler feed water pump?
Boiler feed pumps are an important part of any boiler operation. They control the amount of water fed to the boiler and the manner in which it is fed.
What is fish boiler?
A fish boiler is a hous boiler that stores fish instead of water.
Where did George babcock die?
It is not known where George Babcock died. George Babcock is most known for inventing the water tube steam boiler.
Can you hook domestic hot water directly into your boiler?
No. Hot water directly from boiler is not potable.
Which is better fire tube boiler or water tube boiler?
The words are literal , a water tube boiler is water inside the tubes with hot gases surrounding them and a fire tube boiler are got gases within the tubes with water surrounding them.
