In this article we will discuss about the design of velox boiler which is used in steam power plants. Also learn about the advantages and benefits of velox boiler. It is a well-known fact that when the gas velocity exceeds the sound-velocity, the heat is transferred from the gas at a much higher rate than rates achieved with sub-sonic flow. [...]

Introduction to Combustion Equipment for Steam Boilers: The combustion equipment is a component of the steam generator. Since the source of heat is the combustion of a fuel, a working unit must have, whatever, equipment [...]
In this article we will discuss about the design of LaMont boiler with the help of a suitable diagram. This boiler works on a forced circulation and the circulation is maintained by a centrifugal pump, driven by a steam turbine using steam from the boiler. For emergency an electrically driven pump is also fitted. Fig. 12.22 shows a LaMont steam [...]
