Steam-raising plant and boilers Figure 1 shows a sectional view of a typical steam-raising boiler. This is known as a shell and tube boiler and is the most common type. The hot gases from the burner go through the furnace tube and then back through the smoke
Read MoreStraight tube, shell-and-tube waste heat boilers frequently develop tube and tube sheet failures due to the imposition of unequal stresses. A primary cause of this is the uneven distribution of hot gases across the face of the tube sheet. The tubes involved tend to come loose, creating leakage problems.
Read MoreThe high powered Clayton Steam generator is the world's most compact, efficient, responsive and safest way of producing high quality steam. The Clayton Steam generator has been continually developed since 1930 and is very different from the traditional firetube boiler design that is the familiar steam train boiler image of the past.
Read MoreThis steam trap is therefore acting mostly as a "steam cooler" wasting steam from the Steam Main. Note the nice insulation job however; this is probably keeping the problem from being much worse. Condensate should always be drained from the BOTTOM of the steam line in low sections of pipe and at changes in direction, such as a 90 Degree turn.

In a steam engine, the firebox is the area where the fuel is burned, producing heat to boil the water in the boiler. Most are somewhat box-shaped, hence the
