For the same output the outer shell of fire tube boilers is much larger than the shell of water-tube boiler. Water tube boilers require less weight of metal for a given size, are less liable to explosion, produce higher pressure, are accessible and can respond quickly to change in steam demand.
Read More2017/12/21 · In engineering applications, there are various types of boilers such as water tube boilers, fire tube boilers, packaged boiler, fluidized bed combustion boiler, pulverized fuel boiler and waste heat boilers. These boilers are used in different industries such as power plants, paper, and chemical. The present paper reports various problems (such as agglomeration, slagging, fouling, caustic

Read MoreThe most common boiler applications are boiler feed, condensate pumping, economiser circulation and shunt pumps. Sub system pumps such as dosing and water treatment pumps also exist. Boiler feed. When we talk boiler feed there is normally 4 ways to
Read MoreThe only reason a boiler can withstand these furnace temperatures is the presence of water in all tubes of the furnace at all times when a fire is present. In a very short period of time, continued firing during a low water condition literally melts steel boiler tubes (Fig. 2).
Read MoreAs steam is generated, the water within the boiler evaporates and is replaced by pumping feedwater into the boiler. As the steam passes around the system to the various items of steam-using plant, it changes state back to condensate, which is, essentially, very good quality hot water.

Read MoreWater-tube boiler plant is much less tolerant of high TDS levels, and even less so as the pressure increases. This is due to a number of reasons, including: Water-tube boilers have a limited water surface area in the steam drum, relative to the evaporation rate.
Read MoreOn off operation of boiler feed pumps a cause for carryover in flue tube boiler. It can be practiced only when the drum size is big as in an oil-fired boiler with internal furnace. In external furnace cases, the steam space is less, thus feed water regulation would give purer steam.

Read MoreFeed-water purity requirements therefore can vary widely. A low-pressure fire-tube boiler can usually tolerate high feed-water hardness with proper treatment while virtually all impurities must be removed from water used in some modern, high-pressure boilers.
Read MoreBoiler feed water quality is limited owing to problems of (1) scaling, (2) corrosion, and (3) foaming. In order to avoid these problems, the quality guidelines shown in Table IV have been adopted. Data in Table IV show a major difference between cooling water and boiler feed water quality constraints, in that boiler feed water has a strong relationship between water quality and the pressure of
