  2. Steam and water analysis system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_and_water_analysis...

    Steam and water analysis system (SWAS) [1] is a system dedicated to the analysis of steam or water.In power stations, it is usually used to analyze boiler steam and water to ensure the water used to generate electricity is clean from impurities which can cause corrosion to any metallic surface, such as in boiler and turbine.

  3. Boiler water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_water

    Boiler water is liquid water within a boiler, or in associated piping, pumps and other equipment, that is intended for evaporation into steam. The term may also be applied to raw water intended for use in boilers, treated boiler feedwater , steam condensate being returned to a boiler, or boiler blowdown being removed from a boiler.

  4. Phosphate test - Wikipedia

    The next step is to add dilute stannous chloride reagent, which has been freshly prepared from concentrated stannous chloride reagent and distilled water, to the mixture in the tube. This will produce a blue colour (due to the formation of molybdenum blue ) and the depth of the blue colour indicates the amount of phosphate in the boiler water.

  5. ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASME_Boiler_and_Pressure...

    The ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) is an American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) standard that regulates the design and construction of boilers and pressure vessels. [1] The document is written and maintained by volunteers chosen for their technical expertise . [ 2 ]

  6. Boiler blowdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_blowdown

    These water treatments often include compounds forming a sludge to entrap such particles; and boilers intended for such water treatment include a structure called a mud drum at the lowest part of the boiler. Bottom blowdown involves periodically opening valves in the mud drum to allow boiler pressure to force accumulated sludge out of the boiler.

  7. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

Anti-Corrosion Methods and Materials, 55(1), 15–19. Sendelbach, M. (1988). Boiler-water treatment: Why, what and how. Chemical Engineering, 95(11), 127. Characteristics of boiler feed water ...

  8. Boiler design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_design

    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. Steam produced in a boiler can be used for a ...

  9. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    Where hot-water space heating boilers are installed, domestic hot water cylinders are usually heated indirectly by primary water from the boiler, or by an electric immersion heater (often as backup to the boiler). In the UK these vessels are called indirect cylinders and direct cylinders, respectively. Additionally, if these cylinders form part ...
