INTRODUCTION
Boiler is a closed vessel in which water is converted into steam by utilising the heat of fuel combustion.
The steam under pressure is then usable for
transferring heat to process.
Type :
Fire Tube Boiler
A fire-tube boiler is a type of boiler in which
hot gases from a fire, pass throug tubes running through a sealed container of water.
The heat of the gases is transferred through the
walls of the tubes by thermal conduction,
heating the water and ultimately creating steam.
BOILER DETAILS
Type: 3 pass Fire tube boiler, fully wet back Quantity : 2 nos.
Model : SM-80DH/10.54KG/CM²
Fuel Used : Furnace Oil (F.O.) / PNG Capacity : 8000 kg/hr

Boiler System Consist Of
1. Feed water system 2. Fuel system
Feed Water System
provides water to the boiler and regulates it automatically to meet
the steam demand. Various valves provide access for maintenance and repair.

Steam system
collects and controls the steam produced in the boiler. Steam is
directed through a piping system to the point of use.

BURNER
Function:
- Mixing oil and air in proper proportions. - To produce heat by combustion of fuel & air. - Forced Draft air is forced in to combustion
chamber.
Design:
Fully automatic & step less modulating (20 to 100%)
High pressure atomizing (jet), means oil is atomized by nozzle
and vaporization occurs in combustion space.
Forced draught combustion air blower with motor Nozzle
Ignition transformer with electrode Solenoid valve
COMBUSTION
High speed fuel oxidation that produces light, heat & flame.
Three necessary components require for combustion:
1. Oxygen ( Air) 2. Ignition
3. FUEL
Four important factors that control combustion
1.Air supply
BOILER MOUNTINGS
Boiler mounting are required for
the complete controlling of steam generation,
measurement of some of the important properties of steam,
According to IBR following mountings should be fitted to the boiler,
1. Two safety valve:
Function : To blow off steam when the pressure in the boiler
exceeds the working pressure.
2. Two water level indicators:
Function: Indicate the water level in boiler.
3. Pressure gauge:
Function : Indicates the pressure of steam in boiler.
4. Steam stop valve:
Function: To stop the flow of steam from the boiler to main steam header.
5. Feed check valve:
Function: Control the supply of feed
6.Blow down valve:
Function: continuous use to control the concentration of dissolved
solid in boiler water.
7.Fusible plug:
Function: To protect the boiler against damage due to over heating
caused by low water level in boiler.

Performance Evaluation of Boilers
• The performance parameters of boiler, like
efficiency and evaporation ratio reduces with
time due to
– poor combustion,
– heat transfer surface fouling and – poor operation and maintenance.
• There are two methods of assessing boiler efficiency.
EFFICIENCY
1. Direct method:
Efficiency = Q X (hs – hf) X 100 % q X GCV
Q= Quantity of steam generated per hour (kg/Hr) q = Quantity of fuel used per hour (kg/Hr)
hs = Enthalpy of Dry saturated steam ( kcal/kg) hf = Enthalpy of feed water (kcal/kg)
2. Indirect method :
ɳ = 100 – (L1+L2+L3+L4+L5) L1= Stack Loss
L2= Un-burnt loss L3= Enthalpy loss
