2. Reboiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reboiler

   Most reboilers are of the shell and tube heat exchanger type and normally steam is used as the heat source in such reboilers. However, other heat transfer fluids like hot oil or Dowtherm (TM) may be used. Fuel-fired furnaces may also be used as reboilers in some cases. Commonly used heat exchanger type reboilers are:

3. Thermosiphon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosiphon

   If the piping of a thermosiphon resists flow, or excessive heat is applied, the liquid may boil. Since the gas is more buoyant than the liquid, the convective pressure is greater. This is a well known invention called a reboiler. A group of reboilers attached to a pair of plena is called a calandria. In some circumstances, for example the ...

4. Electric boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_boiler

   Some types of boilers aren't used for heating, but for other purposes. A boiler could be used as a household appliance or to produce steam for an industry. An electric steam boiler is intended to produce steam for process industry or other uses, such as drying, heat treating, and others. These are generally permanently installed systems with ...

5. Electric steam boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_steam_boiler

   Water from the system or holding tank is then run over or near this hot element in a pipe or tank, heating the water to a suitable temperature, then making the water hot enough to boil and become saturated steam, [1] at which point the saturated steam is transported to wherever it is needed via the steam pipes that exit the body of the electric ...

6. List of boiler types by manufacturer - Wikipedia

   Vanderbilt boiler An American design, similar to the Lentz and large launch-type boilers. [36] Velox boiler: [61] vertical boiler: flued or fire-tube designs where the main shell is a cylinder on a vertical axis, rather than horizontal. Boilers of this external form may have a great variety of internal arrangements.

7. 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 ...

8. Heat recovery steam generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_steam_generator

   They can use a gas turbine to produce high-reliability electricity for campus use. The HRSG can recover the heat from the gas turbine to produce steam/hot water for district heating or cooling. [1] Large ocean vessels (e.g., Emma Maersk) make use of heat recovery so that their oil-fired boilers can be shut down while underway. [1]

9. Electrode boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrode_boiler

   Electrode boilers can work on both single-phase and three-phase supplies. If DC voltage is used, electrolysis of water occurs, decomposing water into its elements H 2 at the cathode (negative electrode) and O 2 at the anode (positive electrode). The electrode boiler is 99.9% efficient with almost all the energy consumed producing steam. [1]
