    in locomotive boilers, a feed water check valve placed on the top of the boiler drum. This encourages rapid mixing of the cold feedwater with the hot steam, reducing the risk of thermal shock to the heated parts of the boiler. Tubeplate a plate across the barrel of a fire-tube boiler, containing many small holes to receive the fire-tubes.

    The treatment of boiler water can be put into two parts. These are internal treatment and external treatment. (Sendelbach, p. 131) [ 4 ] The internal treatment is for boiler feed water and external treatment is for make-up feed water and the condensate part of the system.

    These systems depend on the proper operation of thermostatic air-venting valves located on radiators throughout the heated area. When the system is not in use, these valves are open to the atmosphere, and radiators and pipes contain air. When a heating cycle begins, the boiler produces steam, which expands and displaces the air in the system.

  6. Deaerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaerator

    Thermal deaerators are commonly used to remove dissolved gases in feedwater for steam-generating boilers. The deaerator is part of the feedwater heating system. [1] [2] Dissolved oxygen in feedwater will cause serious corrosion damage in a boiler by attaching to the walls of metal piping and other equipment forming oxides (like rust).

    Vanderbilt boiler An American design, similar to the Lentz and large launch-type boilers. [36] Velox boiler: [61] vertical boiler: flued or fire-tube designs where the main shell is a cylinder on a vertical axis, rather than horizontal.
