A steam generator is a mechanical equipment that uses the heat energy of fuel or other energy resources to heat water into hot water or steam. It belongs to small equipment and is a kind of steam boiler. According to Boiler Safety Technical Inspection Regulations, a boiler whose water volume exceeds 30 litres belongs to pressure container, national special equipment. There is no need of water storage in the internal structure of modular steam generator concurrent pipeline and the water volume is...
A cornertube boiler is a type of natural circulation water-tube boiler which differentiates itself from other water tube boilers by its characteristic water-steam cycle and a pre-separation of heated steam from the steam-water mixture occurs outside the drum and the unheated downcomers.
There’s a lot to carefully consider when you’re upgrading or replacing your facility’s equipment. Thermal oils tolerate higher temperatures than water-based formulas without boiling or unduly increasing system pressure.
Thermal fluid heating, and thermal oil systems, in particular, have several advantages. These advantages include:
Efficient industrial heating is important for a variety of reasons – both within your facility and its daily operations, a...
While the exact chemical treatment plan will be determined by a local water expert after performing an analysis of a water sample, there are some chemicals that are commonly used to treat boiler water.
Water quality is of the utmost importance in proper and safe boiler operations. An improperly treated feedwater system can result in the scaling of the boiler internals, safety equipment and auxiliary piping.
If the impurities in the boiler feedwater are not dealt with properly, carryover of boiler water into the steam system can occur.
Carryover can be caused by two factors:
To prevent scale formation from low remaining levels of hardness which may have escaped treatment. Sodium phosphate is normally used for this, and causes the hardness to precipitate to the bottom of the boiler where it can be blown down.
A steam boiler is a water containing vessel which transfers heat generated by a fuel source into steam, which is then piped and directed to points where it could be used while running industrial equipment. The basic idea here is to convert water to steam using a source of heat.
