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.

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?

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.

Why is your ceiling leaking when you turn on your boiler?
Boiler . More information is needed is needed as to what exactly this boiler is and what connection it has to the ceiling. You are possibly referring to an in floor heating system or a hydronic heating system. We need more facts to get to a sensible answer.
