WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY BOILER
?
 Boiler means any closed vessel exceeding 22.75 Ltr. in capacity used
for steam generation under pressure. The first boiler was developed in
1725 and its working pressure was 10 kg/ cm2.
 Boiler can be regarded as a number of interconnected heat
exchangers arranged in such manner that heat available by burning of
fuel is transferred to convert water into steam in most efficient manner.
FUNCTION OF BOILER
 To produce the steam at the desired rate at
desired pressure and temperature with use of
resources such as oil, coal & water for generating
the power.
Types of Boilers
Natural circulation Boiler :Drum to down comer - to main ring header – to ww tubes
and back -to drum. Due to difference in density of water and steam this
types of circulation takes place.

 Forced circulation (Assisted circulation) Boiler :As per operating pressure of the boiler approaches to
the critical pressure, additional pumps are required to install in down
comers, because at this pressure there is no appreciable density
difference between water and steam to have natural circulation of
water.

According to working pressure

Sub critical pressure boiler : when working
pressure of boiler is between 130 to 180 kg/ cm2
critical boiler : when working pressure of boiler
is 225.56 kg/ cm2

Super critical boiler : when working pressure of
boiler is 240.10 kg/ cm2
Why to go for higher capacity ?
1’-2’ = Work done in turbine
from P1 – P2
2’-3 = Heat Rejection in

3-4 = Water pumped to boiler
4-1 = Heat addition in eco and
boiler.
SPECIAL FEATURES OF 500MW BOILER
Controlled circulation of feed water in water walls with the
help of 3 Nos. of boiler circulating water pumps installed on
down comers. Rifled bore water wall tubes as against smooth
bore tubes in 210 MW boiler.
 Provision of Orifices for equal distribution of water in water
wall tubes from bottom ring header.
 All down comers are connected to front header of the
bottom ring header.

DESIGN FACTOR
For the construction of boiler parts subjected to
pressure and their integral attachment, the designer
takes into account several factors
 Relative Cost
 Mechanical Properties
 Manufacturing Method
 Scaling Resistance
 Maintenance
Various parts of Boiler
BOILER IS DIVIDED INTO TWO PASS: FIRST PASS
 SECOND PASS
First pass of the boiler consists of:-

 Furnace water wall.
 Divisional super heater pendent assembly.
 Final Super heater pendent assembly.

 Reheater front pendent assembly. (CRH)
 Reheater rear pendent assembly. (HRH)
 Rear Arch Panel.

 Water Wall screen tubes.
Second pass of the boiler consists of: Steam cooled wall.

 Economizer lower bank coils.


Economizer middle bank coils.



Economizer upper bank coils.



LTSH lower bank coils





Eco. Hanger tubes.



ECONOMISER
 Requirement why ?
 Advantages
•
•

As the economiser recover the heat in the flue gas that leaves the boiler
and transfer to working fluid there will be saving in fuel consumption.
As the feed water is preheated in the economiser and enter the boiler
tube at an elevated temperature( near to saturation temp.) the heat
transfer area required for the evaporation surface required will be
reduce considerably. As the size of boiler also will be reduced.

 Types of Economiser



The tubes can be made any length and diameter with 38mm to 52mm
OD. The side spacing and back spacing can be arranged for good
cleaning, absorption of heat and less draught loss. Spacing about 90mm
to 140mm.
It is composed of three banks of 130 parallel tube elements arranged in
horizontal rows in such a manner that each row is in line with the row
above and below.
Drum & Drum Internals
 Requirement
Separation of saturated steam from the steam-water mixture produced by
the evaporating tubes
 Mixing feed water from economiser and water separated from steam – water
mixture, and re-circulate through the evaporating tubes.
 Carrying out blow down for reduction of boiler water salt concentration.
 Treatment of Boiler water by chemicals



In furnace not only combustion but also heat transfer is taking place
simultaneously.
The maintenance work involved in repairing the firebricks (which is
otherwise necessary) is completely eliminated.
Due to heat transfer in the furnace, temperature of the flue gas leaving
the furnace is reduced to the acceptable level of the superheating
surfaces.
Higher heat loading in the furnace is possible, as heat is being
simultaneously removed by heat transfer, and hence economy in
surfacing.
Providing a Gas tight seal to the combustion chamber to prevent air
infiltration.

 Requirement?

By increasing the temperature of the steam, the useful energy that can be
recovered economically increases thus the efficiency of the cycle also as can
be seen in Fig.3.40.
 Superheating of steam eliminates the condensation of steam during
transporting of steam in pipelines and inside the early stages of turbines
which is harmful to the turbine blades and pipe lines.
 Limits the work done by turbine stages to avoid excessive erosion of blades
