Application Notes
Safe management of industrial steam and hot water boilers Water treatment As with all systems where water is heated there will be a potential for scaling. This can lead to a loss of efficiency or, in extreme cases, premature failure of the boiler due to either scale build-up on the internal surfaces or debris from corrosion
These boilers can be of single- or multiple-drum type. These boilers can be built to any steam capacities and pressures, and have higher efficiencies than fire tube boilers Packaged Boilers: The packaged boiler is so called because it comes as a complete package. Once delivered to site, it requires only the steam, water pipe work, fuel supply
55 Gallon Drum Steam Boiler Sterilizer. This page demonstrates how we built our own low pressure steam boiler and autoclave for sterilizing mushroom substrates on our farm. It's shown in two versions. The first version shown below must be filled with water and regulated manually. This is what we started with because of our limited budget at the

Boiler Drum And Its Internals 1. 1 Presentation by Ashrant Dass 2. 1. Boiler Drum is a pressure vessel it is used to Separate steam and water mixture 2. Mixing feed water with water separated from steam-water mixture and re-circulate through the evaporating tubes. 3. Reduce dissolved solid contents of the steam ( Blow down) 4.
When a differential pressure transmitter is used to measure drum level and the instruments used are sensitive to density variation, density compensation techniques must be employed. A mass steam flow and water flow signal is required for two and three element control systems. (For more information, refer to ANSI/ISA-77.42.01-1999 (R2006
Steam Separator: A device for removing the entrained water from steam. Strainer: A device, such as a filter, to retain solid particles allowing a liquid to pass. Sight Glass: A glass tube used on steam boilers to give a visible indication of the boiler's water level. Drain: A valve connection at the lowest point for the removal of all water
All referenced page numbers below are from the 2007 ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code. Formula. To calculate the minimum required thickness of a boiler drum required for various applications you will use a formula contained within ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code PG-27 Cylindrical Components Under Internal Pressure page 10.
The "Bible" on our size boilers Model Boilers & Boilermaking by K. N. Harris. Chapter two Constructional Materials goes into thicknesses. The thickness of the shell in inches is equel to The working pressure times the internal dia of the shell in inches devided by two time the Maximum safe stress of boiler shell material in Ib. per sq. in (3125).
Forced outages of steam boilers due to tube leakages remain the leading cause of lost production in plants. Due to hundreds, if not thousands of linear feet of pipe, there is a high potential for
My copper tube is much smaller in diameter and it seems that thickness (0.042" is marginal for a boiler at similar pressure - certainly not enough if the boiler is a structural component. I have a boiler of 3" diameter - a slightly extended Tubal Cain design and it uses 16 gauge copper, that's about 0.062"

Struthers Wells® waste heat boilers are typically supplied with an overhead steam drum for water and steam circulation with a large recirculation rate to ensure effective cooling. The steam drums are equipped with two stage phase separation systems to provide high purity steam which is frequently used to generate power through steam turbines.
Design temperature: Maximum mean wall temperature of pressure parts (tube, pipe, header and drum) that is to say the sum of the outside and inside pressure parts surface temperatures divided by two.A steam boiler is designed for design metal temperature which influence allowable stress values. The design metal temperature of an individual component may be much higher than the design steam
It includesmost steam boilers, the exception being those of the 'once through' or coil type, where there is no steam drum. In such cases, steam outlet temperatures exceeding a pre-set value are taken to indicate insufficient water input. In most cases, the simple gauge glass on the steam / water drum or boiler shell is used as the indicator.
The steam drum is cylindrical with two flat plates of equal thickness. Because of the internal pressure, the flat plates are mutually connected by vertical solid stays. The steam drum is furnished with the necessary internal fittings to ensure an even distribution of the feed water, of the circulation water from the exhaust boiler and to ensure
Even the application of the "Code Jurisdictional Limits for Piping — Drum Type Boilers" to steam systems in ethylene heaters can be problematic, because the language of the section is clearly intended for a conventional boiler. Most engineers agree, and several U.S. state boiler codes require that the steam drum be designed to ASME Section 1.
Reg. 269, Reg. 270 INSPECTION AND TESTING Shell of steam and water drums. a) For tube plates (where the tubes are expanded therein) the thickness shall be at least such as to allow a minimum parallel belt width of tube seat of 3/8 inch, this seating to be measured as explained below. ii) All tubes shall be carefully expanded into the
Consequently, bubbles are formed and wet steam is generated. In most boilers, a steam-water mixture leaves the tube and enters the steam drum. The remaining water is then mixed with the makeup (replacement) water, returned back to the heated tube and the process is repeated. Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG) Without the use of a steam drum
Boilers in steam power plants and process plants have large drums that weight from 100 to 250 tons. The manufacture of these drums requires special machines and a special process. Here we look at how longitudinal welding, girth welding, stress relief, repairs, and high-capacity 6000 and 8000 ton hydraulic presses are all involved in the manufacture of these huge and reliable boiler drums.
Re: Boiler Drum Size for Different Pressures and Capacities 06/30/2011 2:22 PM Depending on the system it also is sized to give you max dry steam output and drop out any residual water droplets.
Drum or generally called shell contains water, steam or mixture of both water and steam. In smoke tube boilers shell contains a mixture of both water and steam, water being denser forms the lower part of the shell while steam is above water level. In water tube boilers, water and steam can be filled in the same drum or separate drums. Dust
A steam drum (upper) and mud drum(s) (lower) are connected by the tubes, forming both the convection section and the furnace areas. Ranging in size from 500,000 to more than 20,000,000 BTU input, these boilers provide fast steaming capability because of the relatively low water content, allowing quick response to changing load demands.
The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII provides rules for construction of the pressure vessel. The purpose of this paper is to have comparative study for design and analysis of steam drum using ASME Section VIII Div. 2 and Div. 3. Steam drum is a part of boiler system and works at high pressure and high temperature.
An illustration of the boiler is shown in figure below. The exhaust gas boiler is designed as a vertical boiler with a cylindrical shell surrounding the boiler tubes and water drum as well as the steam space. The tubes consist of a large number of smoke tubes and a small number of stay tubes.
Inspection of the boiler revealed 10 failed 2-1/4" tubes. According to UPRR records, the tubes conform to ASME SA-178 Gr.A specification with a tube wall thickness of 0.120" (No. 11 BWG). All tube failures were located at the waterside of the rear tube sheet. Four tubes were completely sheared from the tube sheet while six other tubes showed
Steam drums usually have very little inside wear and we are usually concerned more with cold side corrosion or ash erosion on the outside of drums. The boilers we have in the paper mill run at 850 PSI and the drums are close to 5" thick. I can't imagine how thick a drum designed for 2000 PSI would be. _____
To determine the minimum required thickness of a boiler drum required for various applications you will use a formula contained within ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code PG-27 Cylindrical Components Under Internal Pressure page 10. Specifically PG-27.2.2 page 10. PG-27.2.2 Piping, Drums, and Headers.
In small, low pressure boilers, steam-water separation can be established with the use of a large steam drum approximately half full of water.Natural gravity steam-water separation can be sufficient for this case. On the other hand, for high capacity, high pressure (HP) boilers, steam-water separation at the steam drum is accomplished with the use of mechanical steam-water separators.
Carryover from boiler water to steam is a path by which dissolved and suspended solids in boiler water can be introduced into steam. Steam drums are equipped with steam separation devices capable of mechanically reducing the moisture content of the steam. The total carryover into steam consists of two parts: a mechanical part and a vaporous part.

A 2 inch boiler tube has a wall thickness of 3/16 inch.what is it's inside diameter 1- 5/8 inches Fire two boilers have their tubes fixed and a flat steel plates, otherwise known as heads or tubesheet
The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section I establishes the requirements for steam drum water level measurement in fired steam drums. The primary focus of these requirements is safe boiler operation. Maintenance, performance, and other specific application issues are not addressed.
Boiler expanders are designed with rolls sufficiently long to roll 1/4″ to 3/8″ beyond the sheet thickness. Boiler inspectors insist that tubes be rolled the full thickness plus a minimum of 3/16″ beyond the sheet or drum thickness to a maximum 1/2″. It's very common to use four or five different tools when repair water-tube boilers.
The boiler supplier should inform company in his proposal where higher grade material is proposed. Drums of high-tensile, low-ductility steel should not be used where the thickness of the drum would otherwise be less than 75 mm. Steam drums should not be less than 0.61 m internal diameter.
