Unique feature of high pressure boiler
Advantages of high pressure boiler
Solid fuel firing Hand firing Mechanical firing Types of stokers Overfeeding Underfeeding Principle of overfeed stockers A layer of fresh or green coal-fresh coal zone A layer of coal losing moisture-drying zone A coking layer of coal losing its volatile content-distillation zone A layer of incandescent coke where the fixed carbon is consumed-combustion zone A layer of ash getting cooler-ash zone
