What is the purpose of boiler drum?
Purpose of the boiler drum is to collect steam from all the various tubes in a boiler, and send it to the turbine to spin the generator
What is the area between the steam drum and the mud drum ona boiler?
Generator
Why boiler drum steam pressure always different from boiler main steam line pressure?
Due to pascals law
Where would a steam separator be located on a boiler?
In the steam drum, where steam exits and flows to the superheaters.
What will happen when boiler steam drum level goes down?
Overheating of water wall tubes may cause crack. Boiler will damage due to boiler drum level goes down.
Why silica increase in boiler drum inspite of 02ppm silca im boiler make up water?
This is due to steam seperation the silica remains in the drum water.
What is Swelling and shrinking effect in boiler drum?
The swelling and shrinking effect in a boiler drum refers to the physical changes in the drum's volume due to temperature variations and pressure changes during operation. When the boiler is heated, the water inside converts to steam, causing the drum to swell as the pressure increases and the water expands. Conversely, when the boiler cools down or experiences a drop in pressure, the drum may shrink as the steam condenses back into water. This phenomenon is important to consider for the structural integrity and safety of the boiler system.
What is inclination of steam drum?
Boiler drum inclination is kept at 1:50 with the horizontal i.e. around 6 to 8 degrees.
What is function of drum in thermal power plant?
Steam drums are used on recirculating boilers that operate at subcritical pressures. The primary purpose of the steam drum is to separate the saturated steam from the steam-water mixture that leaves the heat transfer surfaces and enters the drum.
What is the difference between the operation of a automatic boiler and manual boiler?
boiler are working on same principal but automatic and manual boiler has difference that manual boiler working at single element loop and automatic boiler work at three element loop.single loop means when fuel increase mean load increase on boiler by adjusting fuel operator has to adjust steam drum level manualy , while automatic means when load increas, fuel increase steam drum level adjust automaticaly by watching fuel consumption.
What is drum boiler?
A drumless boiler is obviously a boiler without a drum. The steam is fed into a header, then into a turbine for making electricity. Quality control of the water used is of extreme importance. Since there is no water level in a drum to maintain, feedwater must be constant with no interruption of any kind. With a drum type, water feed can be interrupted for a very short time. Not so with a drumless type.
What is marine boiler use for?
to convert heat to steam
