The upstream pipework is a high-pressure distribution pipe possibly from a distribution manifold or steam boiler supplying plant of a non-essential nature (Figure 8.1.20). Should the demand be higher than the supply capacity, the valve closes and throttles the steam flow, maintaining the pressure in the upstream pipework.

Read MoreA steam boiler is a power generation device, used for generating steam by applying the heat energy to water. The pressure range of earlier boilers ranges from low pressure to medium pressure (7 kPa to 2000 kPa/ 1psi to 290 psi). The present boilers are more useful because it works with high pressure …
Read MoreA boiler is an appliance designed to heat water and produce energy. The heat is applied to water in an enclosed container before being distributed throughout the system. The major difference between a low-pressure and a high-pressure boiler is the amount of pressure per square inch and pounds per square inch gauge that the boiler produces.

Read Moreboiler of this type, filled with water and ready for function, can weigh as much as 165 tons, which corresponds to the weight of 120 VW Golfs. Hot water or steam boilers are relatively similar in design (Figure). The boiler pressure vessel is a horizontal, cylindrical
Read MoreThis boiler uses distilled water for its operation for generating high pressure steam. This steam is recirculated without any wastage in the circuit. In this case high pressure steam generated from pure water is used for generating low pressure steam from impure water or normal water and is used for power generation.

Read MoreHigh pressure steam boiler characteristics: Temperatures will exceed 250 degrees F up to 1200 degrees F. May include a superheater to heat steam above saturation temperature. Due to the high pressures and temperatures at which these boilers operate, they need to be monitored to …
Read MoreSteam pressures and temperatures in current practice have reached 97–164 bar and 480–565°C or 593°C. The rate of increase in efficiency with increase in pressure becomes less as the pressure increases. A limit to the practicable operating pressure is set by the difficulty in separating moisture from steam in the boiler drum.
