A boiler can be a closed system if you include the pipes it is connected to, but usually there are relief valves that will allow the escape of steam to protect against excess pressure and inlets that will allow adding liquid to the boiler to make up for fluid lost from the pressure valves. Also most boilers are imperfectly sealed so they leak a little bit.
If you do not consider the attached piping, then a boiler would not be considered a closed system since it would be constantly sending out steam and receiving condensate in return.
What else can I help you with?
How does a closed system steam engine operate and what are its key features?
A closed system steam engine operates by heating water to create steam, which then expands and pushes a piston to generate mechanical energy. The key features of a closed system steam engine include a boiler to heat the water, a piston to convert the steam's energy into motion, and a condenser to cool and re-circulate the water.
When is momentum constant in a closed system?
Momentum is constant in a closed system when there are no external forces acting on the system.
Is entropy always conserved in a closed system?
No, entropy is not always conserved in a closed system. Entropy can increase or decrease in a closed system depending on the processes happening within it.
Is it possible for there to be negative pressure in a closed system?
Yes, it is possible for there to be negative pressure in a closed system.
A closed system in which the net external force on the system is zero is a what?
A closed system in which the net external force is zero is in mechanical equilibrium.
How does boiler capacity is determine?
In boiler which is a closed vessel fluids are heated & stored for use in different processes
He boiler or system boiler - What is the difference?
He = ASME = heating
How do you calculate the evaporation rate in a closed system - especially in a boiler?
There are many factors. First of all, there is the temperature of the water. Next, the is the volume of water. Next there is the amount of pressure gradually built up in the boiler. Next you have the amount and speed at which heat is transferred to the water.
Why is the boiler light not on?
The boiler light may not be on due to a malfunction in the electrical system, a blown fuse, or a problem with the boiler's ignition system. It is important to troubleshoot and address the issue promptly to ensure the boiler functions properly.

What type of boiler should replace my Baxi Bermuda back boiler?
A system or combi boiler is a great replacement for a Baxi back boiler. Boiler Hut can help with selection and installation.

Do amphibians have an open circulatory system or a closed circulatory system?
Amphibians have closed circulatory system Closed
Does a radiator in a water-to-steam boiler heating-system need to be all the way open or all the way closed or can it be in between?
Anywhere in between. The farther open valve is the warmer radiator will get during normal operation of heat system.
What is the blow down system?
Blow down is done in the boiler in case level is high in the boiler
How do close formula feeds differ from open formula feeds?
The feed system cycles between boiler and turbine and enables the steam to return to the boiler as feed water. A closed feed cycles a main propulsion steam run turbine through a high pressure water tube boiler. The condenser, set to a high vacuum, will receive the steam turbine exhaust.
