  2. Air preheater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_preheater

    The purpose of the air preheater is to recover the heat from the boiler flue gas which increases the thermal efficiency of the boiler by reducing the useful heat lost in the flue gas. As a consequence, the flue gases are also conveyed to the flue gas stack (or chimney ) at a lower temperature, allowing simplified design of the conveyance system ...

    a plate forming the lower front of the outer firebox of a locomotive boiler, below the barrel. Top-feed in locomotive boilers, a feed water check valve placed on the top of the boiler drum. This encourages rapid mixing of the cold feedwater with the hot steam, reducing the risk of thermal shock to the heated parts of the boiler.

  4. Flued boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flued_boiler

    In the flued boiler, any sediment fell past the furnace flue and settled out at the bottom of the boiler shell, where it had less effect. [ 5 ] In model engineering , the Cornish boiler, particularly when fitted with Galloway tubes ( see Lancashire Boiler, below ), is an excellent choice for gas-fired boilers and model steam boats.

    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 ...

  6. Back boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_boiler

    The back boiler is typically used with a gravity feed circuit to the hot water cylinder, with a vent or overflow to prevent excess pressure build up.It can also be connected to a series of radiators to provide central heating but usually requires an electrical pump to be fitted to circulate the hot water, some systems can use the gravity circuit to include radiators.

  7. Plate heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_heat_exchanger

    A plate heat exchanger is a type of heat exchanger that uses metal plates to transfer heat between two fluids. This has a major advantage over a conventional heat exchanger in that the fluids are exposed to a much larger surface area because the fluids are spread out over the plates.
