    The document discusses sections and characteristics of water tube boilers. It describes that a water tube boiler contains a steam drum, water drum, downcomers, D-tubes, refractory, furnace, super heater coil, and economiser. It then compares characteristics of fire tube and water tube boilers such as pressure limits, output capacity, fuel acceptance, cost, efficiency, water quality requirements, and common applications. Finally, it briefly discusses energy loss due to scale formation and effects of impurities like pitting, embrittlement, and acid corrosion.
