Fuel Oil system
Steam flow diagram for an exhaust gas boiler and two oil-fired auxiliary marine
boilers
In this marine steam boilers system, the circulation pump "J" runs continuously. The
auxiliary steam boiler serves as steam separator for the entire system. The system is
thus kept in hot condition and is ready to start instantly. If the steam from the exhaust
boiler exceeds the steam demand onboard, a steam dump valve automatically dumps
the surplus steam to a dump condenser.

The energy content of the exhaust gases is utilized optimally in this marine boiler
system. In addition to generating superheated steam for driving a turbo-alternator, the
exhaust gas boiler also supplies steam for other requirements on board.
However, where there are energy enough in the exhaust gases, it should be
economically justified to instalI a turbo-alternator set. When the EGB then is designed
for a high rate of heat recovery from the gases, the EGB wilI be larger in size and it
wilI thus have a larger water volume inside the tubes.
Due to increased steam production and water volume of the EGE, the OFB, steam
receiver, has to be enlarged in order to obtain larger steam space and to withstand
level variations which occur when the main engine starts and stops. When the main
engine starts, and consequently the steam production takes place, the water in the
EGB will expand and will be pressed from the EGE to the OFB where the water leivel
increases. On the contrary, when the main engine stops, the steam production
interrupts. The circulating water pump will then fill up the EGE with water that
results in a decrease of the water level in the OFB. In case of a too small OFB
compared with the steam production and the water content of the EGE, the water level
variations in the OFB will be unacceptable and they will cause repeated, undesired
high and low level alarms.

the tube bank and it would be disadvantageous to let the steam rise against the
water flow.
C. Superheater section of the Waste Heat Recovery Boiler
Superheats the steam for the turbine. The counterflow principle is applied, i.e.,
the hottest exhaust gasses meet the superheated steam.
D. Heat exchanger
Preheats the boiler feedwater.
E. Condenser
The exhaust steam from the turbine and excess steam from the steam system
condense and recycle.
F. Condensate pump
G. Cooling water pump
Seawater.
H. Make-up water pump
From softener unit.
I. Boiler feedwater pump
J. Boiler water circulation pump
K. Alternator
Deliver electric power to the ships different el-consumers.
