At higher heat transfer rates, and in high-pressure boilers, the problem is more severe: at temperatures in the 900 to 135O0F (482 to 7320C) range, carbon steel begins to deteriorate. Figure 39.2 shows the normal structure of carbon steel boiler tubes, and Figure
Read MoreBoiler efficiency is a measure of how effectively chemical energy in fuel is converted into heat energy in steam going to the turbines. The largest boiler efficiency loss is sensible heat lost as hot flue gases (and ash) exit the boiler. Unburned carbon losses equate to the fraction of combustible fuel which is not burned in the boiler.

Read MoreBoiler feedwater heaters are designed to improve boiler efficiency by extracting heat from streams such as boiler water blowdown and turbine extraction or excess exhaust steam. Feedwater heaters are generally classified as low-pressure (ahead of the deaerator), high-pressure (after the deaerator), or deaerating heaters.

That's optimal at normal temperatures. Pressure changes of a few psi one way or the other can be brought about by atmospheric conditions. Most boilers are safe up to around 30 psi, at
