  2. Steam generator (auxiliary boiler) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_generator_(auxiliary...

    A steam generator on a ship is an auxiliary boiler which draws high-pressure superheated steam from the vessel's propulsion system [1] to generate low pressure saturated steam. This secondary steam is then used to power auxiliary shipboard engines driving winches or pumps, or to meet any steam requirement that does not require superheating ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-tube_boiler

    The only railway use of water-tube boilers in any numbers was the Brotan boiler, invented by Johann Brotan in Austria in 1902, and found in rare examples throughout Europe, although Hungary was a keen user and had around 1,000 of them. Like the Baldwin, it combined a water-tube firebox with a fire-tube barrel.

    A small boiler may be used as an auxiliary boiler when at sea, or a donkey boiler in port. A composite auxiliary boiler does this, using waste heat from the main engines when at sea, or is separately fired when acting as a donkey boiler. Auxiliary boilers were also present in some locomotives, in particular those used in passenger rail service ...

    Cochran boiler. A vertical boiler with horizontal fire-tubes is a type of small vertical boiler, used to generate steam for small machinery. It is characterised by having many narrow fire-tubes, running horizontally. Boilers like this have been widely used on ships as either auxiliary or donkey boilers.

  6. Boiler - Wikipedia

    A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, [1] [page needed] [2] [page needed] including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

  7. Package boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_boiler

    Internal layout of a three-pass fire-tube boiler. Package boilers are commonly called water or fire tube Boilers. Water tube boilers use convection heating, which draws the heat from the fire source, and passes against the generating tubes of the boiler, causing water inside those tubes to boil off into steam.

  8. Heat recovery steam generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_steam_generator

    A specialized type of HRSG without boiler drums is the once-through steam generator. In this design, the inlet feedwater follows a continuous path without segmented sections for economizers, evaporators, and superheaters.

  9. 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 ...
