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 ...
Steam generator (auxiliary boiler), a steam-powered boiler used on ships to produce a low-pressure steam, heated by a high-pressure steam supply rather than a flame. Steam generator (boiler), an oil- or gas-fired boiler, based on a low-water content monotube coil. Steam generator (nuclear power), a heat exchanger in a pressurized water nuclear ...

A marine steam engine is a steam engine that is used to power a ship or boat. This article deals mainly with marine steam engines of the reciprocating type, which were in use from the inception of the steamboat in the early 19th century to their last years of large-scale manufacture during World War II .
Screw-driven steamships generally carry the ship prefix "SS" before their names, meaning 'Steam Ship' (or 'Screw Steamer' i.e. 'screw-driven steamship', or 'Screw Schooner' during the 1870s and 1880s, when sail was also carried), paddle steamers usually carry the prefix "PS" and steamships powered by steam turbine may be prefixed "TS" (turbine ship).
Secondary feedwater enters the "shell" side of the steam generator through the feedring, which is a torus with short, inverted-J shaped nozzles spaced around its major circumference. Secondary water continues down the downcomer, which is the annular space between the outer shell of the steam generator and the shroud covering the tube bundle.
