Read MoreFiretube boilers may be used in steam or hot water applications within the scope and service restrictions of ASME BPV Code Section I and ASME BPV Code Section IV. They may also be used to heat or vaporize liquids other than water, such as an organic or synthetic fluid. Firetube boilers can be constructed in different configurations.
Read MoreChemical cleaning can play an important role in boiler maintenance. Proper chemical cleaning removes deposits from the inside of boiler tubes which improves the boiler heat rate, reduces tube failures and improves the stability of boiler chemistry. However, chemical cleaning is expensive. Vendor costs alone may total $50,000 to $150,000

Read MoreA water tube boiler can be defined as a Steam boiler in which the flow of water in the tubes, as well as hot gases, enclose the tubes. Not like fire tube boilers, this boiler attains high-pressures, as well as high-steam capabilities, can be achieved. This is because of condensed tangential pressure on tubes which is known as hoop stress.
Read More2017/12/21 · In engineering applications, there are various types of boilers such as water tube boilers, fire tube boilers, packaged boiler, fluidized bed combustion boiler, pulverized fuel boiler and waste heat boilers. These boilers are used in different industries such as power plants, paper, and chemical. The present paper reports various problems (such as …
