2. Boiler feedwater pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater_pump

   The water may be freshly supplied or returning condensate produced as a result of the condensation of the steam produced by the boiler. These pumps are normally high pressure units that take suction from a condensate return system and can be of the centrifugal pump type or positive displacement type.

3. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater

   Both effects will reduce the pipe's overall thermal efficiency when used as a heat exchanger. Boiler feedwater is the water which is supplied to a boiler. The feed water is put into the steam drum from a feed pump. In the steam drum the feed water is then turned into steam from the heat. After the steam is used, it is then dumped to the main ...

4. Water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

   Heat from the space-heating boiler is transferred to the water heater vessel/container by means of a heat exchanger, and the boiler operates at a higher temperature than the potable hot water supply. Most potable water heaters in North America are completely separate from the space heating units, due to the popularity of HVAC / forced air ...

5. Condensate pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensate_pump

   Large industrial pumps may also serve as the feedwater pump for returning the condensate under pressure to a boiler. Condensate pumps usually run intermittently and have a tank in which condensate can accumulate. Eventually, the accumulating liquid raises a float switch energizing the pump. The pump then runs until the level of liquid in the ...

6. Feedwater heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedwater_heater

   Feedwater heaters can also be "open" or "closed" heat exchangers. An open heat exchanger is one in which extracted steam is allowed to mix with the feedwater. This kind of heater will normally require a feed pump at both the feed inlet and outlet since the pressure in the heater is between the boiler pressure and the condenser pressure.

7. Forced circulation boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_circulation_boiler

   A forced circulation boiler is a boiler where a pump is used to circulate water inside the boiler. This differs from a natural circulation boiler which relies on current density to circulate water inside the boiler. In some forced circulation boilers, the water is circulated at twenty times the rate of evaporation. [1]
