BOILER LEGISLATIONS
BOILER RULES
To secure uniformity throughout India in technical matters in
Construction
Manufacturing testing
Inspection
Boiler Rules
To insist on the registration and regular inspection of all boilers throughout India.
Applicable to all boilers, Steam pipes, feed pipes and to all Economisers
Act authorizes state Government to appoint Inspector and Chief inspector for
carrying out the provisions of this act.
Only IBR Qualified welders to be used for welding in Boilers
Welders should produce their certificate whenever required.
LOSSES IN BOILER
Sensible heat in flue gas
Main loss
less excess air
Radiation losses
Poor insulation
Irrespective of load
Unburnt in fuel -
C+02------->CO2+8084 K cal/Kg of C
2C+O2------->2CO+2430 Kcal/Kg of C
For every C 8084 Kcal loss
For partial 5654 Kcal loss
Tube failure
WET PRESERVATION
HYDRO TEST
PROBLEMS
Corrosion
Erosion
Swelling
Sagging
Safety valve
Formation of soot
Water cut off
Leak in welding joints .
Fire puff/Explosion
Stack smoking
QUALITIES OF BOILER
Quick start up
Less maintenance
Less floor space
Able to meet load fluctuation
Less fuel
Maximum efficiency
Easy for maintanance
PROBLEMS
Corrosion
Erosion
Swelling
Sagging
Safety valve
Formation of soot
Water cut off
Leak in welding joints.
Tips on boilers
If 22C reduced at Stack emission 1% of fuel will be saved and overall
efficiency of boiler will increase 3~5%
Electrically operated boilers are costlier by 3 times compared to oil
fired boilers.
Steam is also like electricity which means cannot be stored. Hence
effectively produced and used.
