    The document discusses key considerations for building a new steam generator, including support structures for horizontal tube bundles and connections for stringer tubes. It also defines terms like simmer, weep and chatter related to safety valves, and describes methods to check safety valves including hydraulic testing. Additionally, it lists different non-destructive testing methods and asks the reader to sketch and describe a balancing piston, as well as the layers in a gravity filter. Finally, it presents a problem about solids concentration in a boiler to calculate feed water solids concentration and a new feed water flow rate using continuous blowdown.

    December 2010 - 2A3

    1. 5 things that must be considered when building a new steam generator.

    2. Reason for screen tubes, show supports for a horizontal tube bundle, show
    connections for stringer tubes

    3. Safety valve question. Define simmer, weep and chatter. What are two
    methods to check safety valves (gag and hydraulic). Talk about hydraulically
    testing. What can happen if a safety valve weeps.

    4. What are:
    - liquid penetrant inspection
    - magnetic particle inspection
    - ultrasonic inspection
    - radiation inspection
    - thermal radiation inspection

    5. Sketch and describe a balancing piston

    6. A question about gravity filters and the layers, sand, anthracite and one other
    medium. Asks for a sketch too

    7. A boiler with 2000kg in it has 50ppm of solids. After it operates for 9 hours with
    a boiler feed water rate of 900kg/hr the solids are 2200ppm.
    A) what is the concentration of solids in the feed water?
    B) if the continuous blow down is used to maintain 2200ppm solids what is the
    new feed water flow rate?
