Types of boilers

-

There is no specific way in which you can classify a boiler but according to the little knowledge we have classified boilers into seven main classes.

Types of Boilers

Boilers are classified in several classes based on things like their design, working, features and applications. Following are the types of boiler
  • Orientation of the shell
  • Utility of the boilers
  • Heating system
  • Tube content
  • Type of fuel
  • Circulation method
  • Way of heating

According to the Orientation of the shell

Base upon the orientation of the shell with respect to ground boiler can be classified into three types

According to the Utility of the boilers

Base upon the Utility boilers can be classified into two main types
  • Stationary boilers
  • Portable boilers

According to the Heating system

According to the place from which liquid in the boiler is heated, boilers are classified into two main types
  • Externally fired boilers
  • Internally fired boilers

According to the Tube content

According to the type of fluid inside the tube, boilers are classified into two main types
  • Fires tube boilers
  • Water tube Boilers

According to the Type of fuel

According to the type of fuel used by the boilers to heat the fluid they are classified into three main types
  • Solid fuel boilers
  • Liquid fuel boilers
  • Gas fuel boilers

According to fluid Circulation method

According to the source by which fluid moves from the boiler they are classified into two main types
  • Free circulation boilers
  • forces circulation boilers

According to the Way of heating

According to the way in which fluid inside the boiler is heated they are classified into three main types
  • fired boilers
  • Unfired boilers
  • Supplementary fired boilers

To understand the deflection of beam Objective of  deflection of beam lab report 1. Learn basic working of beam 2. Perform theoretical calculation for deflection of beam 3. Perform series of experiment with different material, shapes and load  for beam 4. Compare the result and Discuss the finding Introduction to  deflection of beam Load supporting element in any structure that is installed in horizontal direction and take load perpendicular to its length is called a beam.   Based on the way it is installed in structure, beam can be classified in to four main types.  First simply supported beam which have supports at its both ends, second is overhanging beam which have length extended over its supports, third is overhanging beam which have more than two supports and fourth is cantilever beam which fixed only at one end and other end is free.  There are three basic types of supports available for beams which includes fixed ends support, pined connection support and roller end support.

Aim of Bending Moment in a Beam Aim of this experiment is to study effect of force magnitude on bending moment of beam Recommended:   Deflection of Beam Lab Report Theory Bending Moment in a Beam Beams A structural element which is designed and used to bear high load of structure and other external load is called beam. There are many different types of beam like cantilever beam, simple supported beam and overhanging beam.  Bending of Beam When an external load or the structural load applied in beam is large enough to displace the beam from its present place, then that deflection of beam from its resent axis is called bending of beam.  Bending Moment In simple words bending moment is the product of force applied on beam with the distance between the point of application of force and fixed end of the beam Introduction to Experiment of Bending Moment in a Beam This experiment is about studying the effect of force magnitude on bending of beam and for that structure hardwar

Aim of Bernoulli experiment Aim of this experiment is to compare the behaviour of ideal fluid and real fluid using Bernoulli experiment. Objective of Bernoulli Theorem 1. Use the venture meter apparatus to perform Bernoulli experiment and the effect of area of the flow velocity and fluid pressure 2. Use the Bernoulli’s equation /  Bernoulli theorem  to compare the behaviour of ideal and real fluid Introduction  Bernoulli Experiment According to the Bernoulli’s experiment when area available for the fluid to flow decrease then flow of fluid increase and at the mean while time the fluid pressure or the fluid potential energy decreases. Read about the Effect of Sluice Gate on the Flow of Fluid .  This principle was name after the Daniel Bernoulli who first writes this principle in book named Hydrodynamic.  Following are some of the application of the Bernoulli experiment Find the Air-flight Lift Baseball Draft Sailing Theory of Bernoulli's Theorem Experiment According to Mil
