  2. Boiler design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_design

    Boiler design is the process of designing boilers used for various purposes. The main function of a boiler is to heat water to generate steam. Steam produced in a boiler can be used for a variety of purposes including space heating, sterilisation, drying, humidification and power generation. The temperature or condition of steam required for ...

    injector valves, which allow steam to force water into the boiler when needed [3]: 42 water gauges, which allow the level of water in the boiler to be monitored [3]: 91 mechanical stoker controls (when fitted to larger coal-fired locomotives) or oil feed controls for oil-fired locomotives

    Tilting-disc inconel check valve Check valve symbol on piping and instrumentation diagrams.The arrow shows the flow direction. Vertical lift check valve. A check valve, non-return valve, reflux valve, retention valve, foot valve, or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction.

    See also priming. Check valve Clack valve Clack from the noise it makes. A non-return valve where the feedwater enters the boiler drum. They are usually mounted halfway along the boiler drum, or else as a top feed, but away from the firebox, so as to avoid stressing it with the shock of cold water.

  6. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater

    Boiler feedwater is the water which is supplied to a boiler. The feed water is put into the steam drum from a feed pump. In the steam drum the feed water is then turned into steam from the heat. After the steam is used, it is then dumped to the main condenser. From the condenser, it is then pumped to the deaerated feed tank.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Boiler_Feed_Injector...

    A sectional diagram of a typical steam boiler feed injector, simplified to show the major parts common to such injectors, showing typical proportions, and using colour and shading to hint at temperature, pressure, and velocity variations in the fluid flows. The SVG was hand coded using a text editor.

  8. Boiler feedwater pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater_pump

    A means had to be provided, of course, to put the initial charge of water into the boiler (before steam power was available to operate the steam-powered feedwater pump). The pump was often a positive displacement pump that had steam valves and cylinders at one end and feedwater cylinders at the other end; no crankshaft was required.

  9. Feedwater heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedwater_heater

    An economizer serves a similar purpose to a feedwater heater, but is technically different as it does not use cycle steam for heating. In fossil-fuel plants, the economizer uses the lowest-temperature flue gas from the furnace to heat the water before it enters the boiler proper. This allows for the heat transfer between the furnace and the ...
