Shell boilers are often operated with feedwater temperatures lower than 100 C. Consequently the boiler is required to supply enthalpy to bring the water up to boiling point. Most boilers operate at pressures higher than atmospheric, because steam at an elevated pressure carries more heat energy than does steam …
Read MoreHowever a residential steam boiler pressure is so modest (0.2 psi to 0.5 psi) that the temperature increase above 212 °F will be no more than about 220 °F. A commercial boiler system heating a high-rise building may be operating at much higher pressures, perhaps 20 to 40 psi in order to be able to force steam to 20 or 40 floors of building
Read MoreThe boiler which produces steam of more than 70 bar of pressure is known as high-pressure boiler. The efficiency of fire tube boilers has been found quite low. The generation of steam at high pressure and high temperature is not possible in a fire tube boiler.
Read More2020/3/10 · By definition, a high pressure boiler is one that operates above 15 psi, while a low pressure boiler is one that operates at 15 psi or lower. Steam heating systems run with even lower pressure, typically at less than 1 psi in all.
Read MoreSteam pressures and temperatures in current practice have reached 97–164 bar and 480–565°C or 593°C. The rate of increase in efficiency with increase in pressure becomes less as the pressure increases. A limit to the practicable operating pressure is set by the difficulty in separating moisture from steam in the boiler drum.

Read MoreSteam generators, like the GHGA, MHGA, OAB or HGA type routinely offer over 95% efficiency even to 1000°C and beyond (a temperature unimaginable for boiler steam). Temperature Limitations – Industrial boilers are temperature limited by pressure. To obtain higher temperatures, higher pressures are required. Not so for steam generators.
