2. Steam separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_separator

   A steam separator, sometimes referred to as a moisture separator or steam drier, is a device for separating water droplets from steam. The simplest type of steam separator is the steam dome on a steam locomotive. Stationary boilers and nuclear reactors may have more complex devices which impart a "spin" to the steam so that water droplets are ...

3. Steam drum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_drum

   A steam drum is a standard feature of a water-tube boiler. It is a reservoir of water/steam at the top end of the water tubes. The drum stores the steam generated in the water tubes and acts as a phase-separator for the steam/water mixture. The difference in densities between hot and cold water helps in the accumulation of the "hotter"-water ...

5. Forced circulation boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_circulation_boiler

   In water tube boilers, the way the water is recirculated inside the boiler before becoming steam can be described as either natural circulation or forced circulation. In a water tube boiler, the water is recirculated inside until the vapor pressure of the water overcomes the vapor pressure inside the stream drum and becomes saturated steam.

6. Steam dome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_dome

   Cutaway section of a steam dome, showing the regulator inside. The steam dome is a vessel fitted to the top of the boiler of a steam engine.It contains the opening to the main steam pipe and its purpose is to allow this opening to be kept well above the water level in the boiler.

7. Supercritical steam generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_steam_generator

   A new type of heat-recovery steam generator based on the Benson boiler has operated successfully at the Cottam combined-cycle power plant in central England. The vertical tubing in the combustion chamber walls of coal-fired steam generators combines the operating advantages of the Benson system with the design advantages of the drum-type boiler.
