Steam generators, also known as boilers, produce and transfer steam. There are two main types - fire tube boilers where hot gases pass through tubes surrounded by water, and water tube boilers where water passes through tubes and hot gases flow outside. Boilers are classified according to several factors such as the position of hot gases and water, method of firing, pressure of steam produced, circulation method of water, and intended use. Well-designed boilers provide steam at the required pressure and quality efficiently using minimum fuel. They have low initial, installation, operating, and maintenance costs to be economically viable.

Boilers and-its-mountings and Boiler accessoriesRipuranjan Singh
A boiler is defined as "a closed vessel in which water or other liquid is heated, steam or vapor is generated, steam is superheated, or any combination thereof, under pressure or vacuum, for use external to itself, by the direct application of energy from the combustion of fuels, from electricity or nuclear energy."
Boiler accessories are those components which are installed either inside or outside the boiler to increase the efficiency of the plant and to help in the proper working of the plant
Boiler mountings are the machine components that are mounted
over the body of the boiler itself for the safety of the boiler and for
complete control of the process of steam generation.
Various boiler mountings are as under
1) Pressure gauge
2) Water Level Indicator
3) Fusible plug
4)Safety Valve
i) Lever Safety Valve
ii) Spring Loaded safety Valve
5) Steam stop valve
6) Feed check valve
7) Blow off cock

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

during combustion of fuel, which may be
solid, liquid or gaseous, is transferred to
water and this converts water into steam at
the desired temperature and pressure.

Boilers which are used with stationary plants
b) Portable Boilers:
Boilers which can be readily dismantled and easily
carried out from one site to another.
c) Mobile Boilers:
Boilers which are fitted on mobile carriages are called
Mobile Boilers. E.g. marine and locomotive boilers.

boiler, with the circulation of air, the draught
is named as Natural Draught.
b) Artificial Draught:
When the air is forced by means of forced fan,
the draught is named as Artificial Draught.

a) Cast Iron Boilers
b) Steel Boilers
c) Copper and Stainless steel Boilers
16. Boiler Details
• Shell: main container usually of cylindrical shape, which contains water and
steam
• Furnace: chamber in which combustion of fuel takes place. This may be a
grate to burn coal or a burner to atomize and burn liquid fuel
• Water flow path: it is the path followed by water in the boiler (particularly
in water tube boiler) during the process of absorption of heat and
conversion into steam. Water should be free from dissolved material in order
to reduce scaling of heating surface
• Gas flow path: path followed by hot gases to transfer heat to the water.
Boiler efficiency mainly depends on the gas flow path.
• Steam path: in most of the boilers steam is taken out preferably at the top of
the shell to avoid water particles being carried with the steam. Steam
separators are employed for this purpose.
• Mountings: Valves and gauges necessary for the safety of boiler. E.g. water
level indicator, safety valve, fusible plug etc.
• Accessories: Devices attached to the boiler to improve its performance. E.g.
Air pre‐heater, economiser, super heater etc.

usually made in elliptical shape of the size convenient
for a man to enter through this hole. The opening is
closed by steam tight cover.
46. STEAM TRAP
Steam trap is used to collect and automatically drain
away the water resulted from partial condensation of
steam without steam to escape with this condensate
through a valve. The valve after draining the
condensate is closed.
47. ANTIPRIMING PIPE
It is attached below the stop valve to avoid the water particles
being carried away along with steam. It has closed pipe with
closed ends of 1m and 2m length. The top side of the pipe has
perforations. When the steam passes through it, due to inertia
effect, the moisture of steam falls into the pipe and the steam
with reduced moisture passes into the stop valve.
48. BOILER ACESSORIES
The devices used to improve the
performance and operation of the
boilers are called boiler
accessories.
