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).
Why you use minus to zero range in drum level transmitter?
I refer to Steam Boiler drum level. It is actually - to some positive figure is the range. Generally the boiler level is maintained at mid point that is zero. The transmistter is differential type. (DP type) If the transmitter is with a specified signal out put of 4-20 mA, it sends out 4 mA at lowest level and 20 mA at highest level. At mid level zero it sends out 12 mA. Differential pressure is highest at actual lowest level and lowest at actual highest level of the drum. By keeping negative to positive range there is fair amount of analog signal on lower and higher side of the drum.

Why boiler drum manhole in elliptical in shape?
as the boiler drum is cylindrical in shape due to low stress concentration and in both end the diameter will be less.so for easy entry into the drum for a man the drum man hole is elliptical in shape.
What is the purpose of phosphate dosing in AFBC boilers?
Generally the Phosphate dozing is done in the drum of the boiler. it helps to convert the calcium hard salts to soft sludges. the sludges are higher in weight ,so it comes to the bottem of the drum . then it remove by CBD. this is one of the way of avoiding corrosion in Boiler. Vijay RAMCO
