(a) Straight vertical shell, vertical tube (b) Cochran (vertical shell) horizontal tube. Various advantages of fire tube boilers are as follows. (i) Low cost (ii) Fluctuations of steam demand can be met easily (iii) It is compact in size. 2.1.2 Fire-Tube Boiler This boiler
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.

Pressure vessels and Boiler Inspection are done to determine the amount of maintenance required to have equipment operate properly until the next turnaround. A comprehensive equipment history must be maintained that includes conditions found during inspection and testing, maintenance
Read MoreWater-tube boiler plant is much less tolerant of high TDS levels, and even less so as the pressure increases. This is due to a number of reasons, including: Water-tube boilers have a limited water surface area in the steam drum, relative to the evaporation rate.
Read More22/4/2019 · Vertical Fire Tube Boiler A vertical tube boiler is a simple boiler with a vertical cylinder design. It includes cross tubes, and the furnace is located at the bottom of the boiler. Combustion cases escape through the top of the unit via the flue. Cochran Fire Tube Boiler
Read MoreWater-tube boiler plant is much less tolerant of high TDS levels, and even less so as the pressure increases. This is due to a number of reasons, including: Water-tube boilers have a limited water surface area in the steam drum, relative to the evaporation rate.
Read MoreThe package principle means that approximately 27 000 kg/h is the maximum output of a shell boiler. If more steam is required, then several boilers need to be connected together. The large diameter cylinders used in the construction of shell boilers effectively limit their operating pressure to approximately 27 bar.
Read MoreDesign of Cochran Boiler: It is a Fire tube, Stationary, Multi-tubular, Internally fired, vertical boiler. Cochran boiler is made in many sizes capable of producing steam upto 3 T/hour and working pressures upto 17 bar. This boiler gives Thermal efficiency (ƞ th) of 70% with coal firing and about 75% with oil firing.

Read More3.6.1.9 Boiler. The boiler is a natural-circulation steam boiler with a water tube structure, producing superheated steam. The boiler is designed for the combustion of both product gas and natural gas. The ceiling of the boiler furnace has four burners, two for each gasifier line.
Read MoreThe internal structure of this boiler includes a tiny steam drum, small width tubes. The components of this boiler generate high-volume vapor for high-capacity applications. These boilers are most frequently used boilers, which has replaced several boilers like fire tube due to some reasons like the weight of this tube is less, steam producing process is faster, custom design, high efficiency.

Read MoreFIRETUBE DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS The typical water content in these boilers is around 11/4 to 13/4 pounds of stored water for t every pound of steam per hour for which the boiler is rated. This water content is a function of the convection tube spacing which dictates the boiler pressure vessel diameter.
Read More24/2/2012 · Water tube boiler is reverse of the fire tube boiler. In water tube boiler the water is heated inside tubes and hot gasses surround these tubes. These are the main two types of boiler but each of the types can be sub divided into many which we will discuss later.
