Horizontal boilers are bottom supported while the vertical boilers are top supported. ASME BOILER AND PRESSURE VESSEL.CODE (BPVC) 2010. Since boiler is a closed metallic vessel, heating water above the atmospheric pressure, steam could be generated at the desired pressure and temperature. To heat the water fuels like: coal, diesel oil, gas etc

The steam lines are a critical components system in the boiler tower: in particular the main steam and hot reheat lines are made by thick pipes that are necessary to transfer the steam from the top of the boiler to the steam turbine room, generally located at ground level.

A steam drum is a standard feature of a water-tube boiler.It is a reservoir of water/steam at the top end of the water tubes. The drum stores the steam generated in the water tubes and acts as a phase-separator for the steam/water mixture.The difference in densities between hot and cold water helps in the accumulation of the "hotter"-water/and saturated-steam into the steam-drum.

Apr 20, 2011 · 15 Apr 11 17:07. I have seen that most small boilers (below 100 ton/h of steam) are "bottom supported" design, while bigger boilers are "top supported". I am trying to understand which variables impose the use of the more expensive top supported design, even in places without seismic loads. I appreciate if someone could give references of

BFB boilers are ideal for a wide range of biomass and high-moisture waste fuels. B&W's bubbling fluidized-bed (BFB) top- or bottom-supported, one- or two-drum designs prove attractive in new or retrofit applications. Capacities for bottom-supported range up to 225,000 lb/h (28.4 kg/s) and top-supported from 225,000 to 1,000,000 lb/h (28.4 to 126 kg/s).

Steam boiler systems and how they work. A steam boiler system is an economical way to create and move steam around a plant for things like heat, processing and power generation. The concept is fairly simple. Water placed in a steam boiler is heated using a fuel source. The boiling water produces steam.

Watertube Boiler. In watertube boilers, boiler water passes through the tubes while the exhaust gases remain in the shell side, passing over the tube surfaces. Because tubes can typically withstand higher internal pressure than the large chamber shell in a firetube, watertube boilers are used where high steam pressures (3,000 psi, sometimes

Steam Superheaters in Industrial Boilers. The Steam Superheater is a coil type heat exchanger which is used to produce superheated steam or to convert the wet steam to dry steam, generated by a boiler.. It is different from a boiler in a way that, boiler utilizes both sensible heat as well as latent heat to convert water into steam while superheater utilizes only sensible heat to superheat the

The maximum operating pressure of the boiler is 615 p.s.i. in the steam drum, and the maximum allowable temperature of the steam leaving the boiler is 850 degrees F. The presence of these two furnaces in the boiler permits the control of steam temperature through a range from that of saturated steam to 850 degrees F. total temperature.

Carryover in steam boiler systems occurs when the steam leaving the boiler becomes contaminated with unwanted solids, liquids or vaporous materials. If not dealt with correctly, boiler carryover can have a significant effect on the performance of the system. The main causes tend to be either mechanical or chemical in nature.
