  2. Air preheater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_preheater

    There are two types of air preheaters for use in steam generators in thermal power stations: One is a tubular type built into the boiler flue gas ducting, and the other is a regenerative air preheater. [1] [2] [7] These may be arranged so the gas flows horizontally or vertically across the axis of rotation.

  3. Heat recovery steam generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_steam_generator

    A heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is an energy recovery heat exchanger that recovers heat from a hot gas stream, such as a combustion turbine or other waste gas stream. It produces steam that can be used in a process ( cogeneration ) or used to drive a steam turbine ( combined cycle ).

  5. Steam generator (boiler) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_generator_(boiler)

    A steam generator is a form of low water-content boiler, similar to a flash steam boiler. The usual construction is as a spiral coil of water-tube , arranged as a single, or monotube , coil. Circulation is once-through and pumped under pressure, as a forced-circulation boiler . [ 1 ]

  6. Boiler (power generation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_(power_generation)

    Supercritical steam generators are frequently used for the production of electric power. They operate at supercritical pressure. In contrast to a "subcritical boiler", a supercritical steam generator operates at such a high pressure (over 3,200 psi or 22.06 MPa) that actual boiling ceases to occur, the boiler has no liquid water - steam separation.

  7. Steam generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_generator

    Steam generator (auxiliary boiler), a steam-powered boiler used on ships to produce a low-pressure steam, heated by a high-pressure steam supply rather than a flame. Steam generator (boiler), an oil- or gas-fired boiler, based on a low-water content monotube coil. Steam generator (nuclear power), a heat exchanger in a pressurized water nuclear ...

    White steam car steam generator. Examples of Monotube steam generators include: Industrial steam generators [4] The water-tube boilers of the monotube type used in steam cars, such as: AMC; Clayton Steam Generator; Doble steam car; Gardner-Serpollet; Locomobile Company of America; White Motor Company, US patent 659,837 of 1900 [5]

    Rollin White developed a form of water tube steam generator which consisted of a series of stacked coils with two novel features: the first was the coils were all joined at the top of the unit, which allowed water to flow only when pumped, allowing control of the steam generation; the second was pulling steam from the lowest coil, closest to ...
