The internally rifled (also known as ribbed) tubes are used in boilers and heat exchangers to improve the efficiency of heat transfer. The rifling imparts a centrifugal force to the flowing fluid (commonly a mixture of steam and water). This separates water from the mixture, forces the water towards the wall, and prevents formation of a steam ...
The separated steam flows through the overhead pipe (5) and the steam-water mixture flows through the collector pipe (3) to the drum (6) as well. In the drum occurs the final separation of steam from steam water mixture. The rest amount of water flows through the unheated return tubes (1) and downcomers (7) to the rear wall distributor/header (2).
Schematic diagram of a marine-type watertube boiler. A high pressure watertube boiler [1] (also spelled water-tube and water tube) is a type of boiler in which water circulates in tubes heated externally by fire.
Example of a single industrial control loop; showing continuously modulated control of process flow. Piping and instrumentation diagram of pump with storage tank. Symbols according to EN ISO 10628 and EN 62424. A more complex example of a P&ID. A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows:
Sections of a steam locomotive showing the many fire-tubes which carry the hot gases of the fire through the boiler to heat the water and so create steam. 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.
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.
The setting of the boiler is a large brick-built enclosure, but the steam drums are suspended from a separate girder framework inside this, so as to allow for expansion with heat. The tubes, and the water drums in turn, are hung from the steam drums, again to allow free expansion without straining the tube ends.
A LaMont boiler is a type of forced circulation water-tube boiler [1] in which the boiler water is circulated through an external pump through long closely spaced tubes of small diameter. The mechanical pump is employed in order to have an adequate and positive circulation in steam and hot water boilers.
