1. advantage and disadvantage of fire tube boiler
What is a fire tube boiler?
A fire-tube boiler is a type of boiler in which hot gases from a fire pass through
one or (many) more 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. (from wikipedia)
Fire tube boiler manufacturer
ZG is a professional boiler manufacturer and supplier founded in 1945, our
engineers are specialized in fire tube and water tube boiler designing and
innovation. By now, we have types of fire tube boilers, such as WNS series gas oil
fire tube boiler, DZL series packaged fire-water tube boiler, etc.
Advantages of Fire Tube Boiler
1) Compact in construction.
2) Fluctuation of steam demand can be met easily.
3) Cheaper than water tube boiler.
Disadvantages of Fire Tube Boiler
1) Due to large water the required steam pressure rising time quite high.
2) Output steam pressure cannot be very high since the water and steam are kept
in same vessel.
3) The steam received from fire tube boiler is not very dry.
4) In a fire tube boiler, the steam drum is always under pressure, so there may be
a chance of huge explosion which resulting to severe accident.
