Industrial Boilers

Steam generators
Closed vessels
made of steel and
used for generation of steam
vaporizing water
combustion of fuels
eg. coal,coke,oil,wood,saw dust and begesse etc.
Steam used for producing power,for industrial
process work or for heating proposes.

Requirements of a Perfect
Steam Boilers

Should be absolutely reliable,capable of producing

maximum steam at required pressure for minimum of
fuel consumption,with minimum attention and minimum
initial cost and operating cost.
Simple constructions
Quick starting from cold
Strong enough against temp. stress & strains
Well design combustion chamber
Less floor area, space & light weight
Best gauges,safety valves and other mountings
Easily accessible for inspection,cleaning and repairs

Classification of Steam
Boilers

Vertical or Horizontal
Stationary(Power plant,industrial,central heating and combined
power and heating boilers.),Portable,Locomotive or Marine
Internally Fired or Externally Fired (Lancashire and Locomotive
Boilers)
Solid,Liquid or Gas Fired
Fire(Smoke)Tube:Water is outside the tubes while the hot gases are
inside the tubes
eg.Vertical,Cochran,Lancashire,Cornish,Locomotives,etc) or Water
Tube: Contain a large number of small tubes through which water
circulates,the fire and hot gases being outside of the
tubes.eg.Babcock and Wilcox, Stirling and High pressure Boilers
etc.)

Vertical Boilers

Used in small factories,small water supply

plants,cranes,excavators,winch engines in
mines and on sites of temporary nature such
as construction work etc.
Required minimum floor space,not required
elaborate foundations,and is portable.
Cheap,easy to start but inefficient due to large
wastage of fuel and less heating surface.
Vertical Boilers are:Simple(having one to three
cross tubes), fire tubes and water tubes types.

Simple Cross tube vertical

boiler

consists of a cylindrical shell surrounding a cylindrical fire box.

heating surface is about 8-10 times the grate area.
50% efficiency

Cochran Boiler

It is well design of a Vertical multitubular fire tube boiler

Improvement over the simple vertical boiler as it
provides greater heating surface.
Total heating surface area is about 10-25 times the
grate area
Efficiency 70-75%
Ranges from 1m dia.X2m high,evaporation 20kg/hr to
3m dia X6m high,evaporation 3000kg/hr.
