Steam Boilers, Engines, Nozzles and Turbines The principal function of a stop valve is to Empty the boiler when required and to discharge the mud, scale or sediments which are accumulated at the bottom of the boiler Control the flow of steam from the boiler to the main pipe and to shut off the steam completely when required Put off fire in the furnace of the boiler when the level of water in the boiler falls to an unsafe limit Increase the temperature of saturated steam without raising its pressure Empty the boiler when required and to discharge the mud, scale or sediments which are accumulated at the bottom of the boiler Control the flow of steam from the boiler to the main pipe and to shut off the steam completely when required Put off fire in the furnace of the boiler when the level of water in the boiler falls to an unsafe limit Increase the temperature of saturated steam without raising its pressure ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Steam Boilers, Engines, Nozzles and Turbines In designing air preheaters, the important design consideration is that Stack gases should not be cooled to the dew point Approach temperature should be as low as possible Handling and maintenance should be easier Heat transfer area should be optimum Stack gases should not be cooled to the dew point Approach temperature should be as low as possible Handling and maintenance should be easier Heat transfer area should be optimum ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
