The document discusses different types of boilers, their components, and how to calculate their efficiency. It addresses the differences between fire tube and water tube boilers, lists boiler mountings and accessories like fusible plugs, and provides example calculations for thermal efficiency and evaporation rates using given parameters like steam generation rates, pressures, temperatures, and coal firing rates. Specific boiler types discussed include Babcock & Wilcox, Ramsbottom safety valve, Cochran, and questions address boiler efficiency definitions and the construction and working of pressure gauges and Green's economizer.

Steam Boiler
1) Differentiate between fire tube and water tube boiler.
2) List various mountings and accessories and explain fusible plug. 3) A steam generator evaporates 18000 kg of water per hour at 10 bar abs. Pressure. The steam is 97 % dry. Feed water temperature is 400 C. Coal is fired at a rate of 2050 kg per hour, having calorific value 28000 Kj/kg. Calculate: (i) Thermal efficiency (ii) Equivalent evaporation per kg of coal. 4) Drawing a neat and clean diagram of babcock And wilcox boiler explain its construction and Working. 5) Define the following terms in connection with boiler. (i) Actual Evaporation. (ii) Boiler Efficiency. 6) Explain with neat sketch the constructional details and working of the Ramsbottom Type spring loaded Safety Valve. 7) A Steam Generator evaporates 18000 Kg/Hr of steam at 12 bar Pressure and steam is 97% dry. Feed water temperature = 105 C. Coal is fired at the rate of 2050 Kg/Hr. C.V. of Coal is 27400 KJ/Kg. Calculate. (i) Heat Supplied per Hour. (ii) Thermal Efficiency. (iii) Actual Evaporation. 8) Enlist different mountings. Explain any one with figure. 9) A boiler generates 7.5 Kg of steam per Kg of coal burnt at a pressure of 11 bar.
