TYPICAL STEAM GENERATION CYCLE
MARINE BOILER
Refers to a closed vessel in which steam is generated from water by the application
of heat.
There are two types of boiler mainly use in the Marine Industry,
Water-tube boilers
Fire-tube boilers.
MAIN COMPONENTS OF A MARINE BOILER
i. Hot well- supplying water at high temperature to the boiler.
ii. Feed water pump- supply and maintain water level inside the boiler.
iii. Exhaust gas boiler- generates additional steam using main engine exhaust
iv. Exhaust Gas Water Circulation Pump- supply hot water inside the exhaust
gas boiler
v. Main and Auxiliary Steam system- supply steam generated to various
systems for consumption.
vi. Steam dump condenser- cool the excess steam and returns to the hot well.
 BASIC WORKING
PRINCIPLE OF A BOILER
 Water is heated by flames or hot gases
which are produced by combustion of
fuels.
 Steam is then generated in the boiler at
different pressure according to Steam
boiler's size and it's specification.
 That steam is then passed through a
pipe to the main and auxiliary steam
system.
 MAIN USES OF STEAM ON BOARD A SHIP
Main Engine Propulsion/Turbines in case of steam ships
Power Generation to run steam turbo generators
Running Auxiliary Machinery in case of steam ships
For Fresh water generation (Evaporators)
For heating duties
For fuel tank heating
Operating Bilge, Stripping and other steam driven pumps
For tank washing in tanker ships and general cleaning
For Driving steam driven deck machinery like winches etc.
