SEMINAR ON BOILERS
WHAT IS A BOILER? Boiler is an apparatus to produce steam .Thermal released by combustion of fuel is transferred to water which vaporizes and gets converted into steam at a desired pressure and temperature.
FEATURES OF A BOILER • SAFETY • ACCESSIBILITY • CAPACITY • EFFICIENCY • COST • CONSTRUCTION
TYPES OF BOILERS ACCORDING TO • FLOW OF WATER AND HOT GASES • POSITION OF FURNACE • POSITION OF PRINCIPAL AXIS • APPLICATION • CIRCULATING WATER • STEAM PRESSURE
FLOW OF WATER AND HOT GASES 1.WATER TUBE BOILER Water circulates through tubes . Hot products of combustion flow over these tubes. 2.FIRE TUBE BOILER Hot combustion gases flow through the tubes . Water surrounds the tubes.
BABCOCK AND WILCOX BOILER • It’s a water tube boiler . It consists of a drum , super heater ,headers , tubes etc.
COCHRAN BOILER • It’s a fire tube boiler . Its a vertical boiler, has a lesser space . Flue gases escape to atmosphere after passing through smoke box and stack.
POSITION OF FURNACE • INTERNALLY FIRED • EXTERNALLY FIRED Internally fired boilers the grate combustion the grate combustion chamber are enclosed within boiler shell.
POSITION OF PRINCIPAL AXIS • VERTICAL • HORIZONTAL • INCLINED
APPLICATION • STATIONARY • MOBILE(MARINE,LOCOMOTIVE)
SCOTCH MARINE BOILER It’s a fire tube boiler . It is of 2 types: 1.Single ended 2.Double ended
CIRCULATION OF WATER • Natural circulation • Forced circulation
STEAM PRESSURE • Low pressure • Medium pressure • High pressure
HIGH PRESSURE BOILER Boiler pressure is 250 kg per sq . Cm And steam temperature is 550 degree centigrade. It is a water tube boiler.
BOILER MOUNTINGS AND ACCESSORIES Mountings are the components used for the safety of the boiler. Ex-feed pump , speed check valve etc.
THERMAL EFFICIENCY OF BOILER It is defined as the ratio of heat actually utilized be water in generation of steam to the heat supplied during the combustion of fuel. Efficiency=W(H2-H1)/W1*CV
BOILER MAINTENANCE Regular maintenance and careful supervision of working of various components result in efficient operation
