Types of Steam Boiler:
Although one can divide steam boilers based on their size, principle, and application, their classification broadly depends on the type of fuels they use – Fluid Fuel Fired and Solid Fuel Fired.
1. Fluid Fuel Fired Steam Boiler:
The oil and gas-fired steam generators have a rugged boiler design required for fluid-based fuel. The steam boilers are highly efficient and usually come with an inbuilt economizer. Some of the top specifications of fluid fuel-fired steam boilers include:
Capacity: 500 to 1000 kg/hrSteam Pressure: 10 kg/cm2Efficiency: up to 90%Fuels: Natural Gas, Furnace oil, LPG, Biogas, etc.
Although the steam boilers are basically the same, water boiling cauldrons, modern steam boilers are different in details, especially concerning the control systems. Marine steam boilers today are provided with automatic surveillance and they operate without supervision 24 hour per day.
Just as the need for increased steaming capacities within fixed space and weight limitations spurred the development of the earlier water-tube steam boiler, so did the same need precipitate the advance to boiler designs of the bent-tube type.
The term bent-tube boiler covers a wide range of boiler designs characterized by the ability to raise steam pressure within a short period of time. This means smaller tube diameters, fewer headers, increased furnace ratings and wider application of water-cooled furnaces. The boilers of this category also became known as multi-drum boiler type, express boiler type, or by various other names corresponding to the designers of particular arrangements. With advanced designs available for naval steamships, it was quite logical to utilize adoptions of those designs for high powered passenger steamships. |
