how boilers keep the factory running

 

Boilers are literally the pieces of equipment that keep the plant up and running. This article will briefly examine some of the specifics about what boilers are, what you need to know about them, and how they keep plants running.

A boiler is a piece of equipment which acts as a closed vessel to convert the water inside into steam. The boiler should be designed to transfer the maximum amount of heat possible from the combustion into the water using processes such as radiation, conduction, and convection. The efficiency of the heat transfer is very important so that the fuel being burned yields the maximum, most cost effective results. In addition the boiler should also be designed to generate high quality steam that can be effectively utilized by the plant.

Boilers function serve

Fuel – Often the steam will be used to power turbines for electric generating equipment, blowers, and pumps.
Production – The steam may also play a role in the actual production of the product by sterilization, or to achieve the processing temperatures needed for an aspect of production.
Climate – The steam may also be used to power the plant’s heating and air conditioning units. This might be done for personal worker comfort, to keep equipment at proper operating temperatures, or both.

Boiler types

Fire Tube Boilers – Fire tube boilers utilize a system of tubes through which the heat source, or “fire”, passes. The tubes are surrounded by water and the water is heated as the tubes also rise in temperature. Eventually steam is released for use.
Water Tube Boilers – In contrast to fire tube boilers, a water tube boiler uses the water rather than the heat which is contained inside of a system of interconnected tubes. The heat moves around the tubes, thereby heating the water within the tubes and gradually transforming it into steam.
