Abstract

Contents:

Combustion Calculations -- Steam Generator Furnace Design -- Steam Generators -- Waste Heat Boilers -- HRSG Simulation -- Miscellaneous Boiler Calculations -- Appendix A: Boiler Design and Performance Calculations -- Appendix B: Tube-Side Heat Transfer Coefficients and Pressure Drop -- Appendix C: Heat Transfer Coefficients Outside Plain Tubes -- Appendix D: Nonluminous Heat Transfer Calculations; Appendix E -- Calculations with Finned Tubes -- Appendix F: Properties of Gases -- Appendix G: Quiz on Boilers and HRSGs with Answers.

Summary: Steam Generators and Waste Heat Boilers: For Process and Plant Engineers focuses on the thermal design and performance aspects of steam generators, HRSGs and fire tube, water tube waste heat boilers including air heaters, and condensing economizers. Over 120 real-life problems are fully worked out which will help plant engineers in evaluating new boilers or making modifications to existing boiler components without assistance from boiler suppliers. The book examines recent trends and developments in boiler design and technology and presents novel ideas for improving boiler efficiency and lowering gas pressure drop. It helps plant engineers understand and evaluate the performance of steam generators and waste heat boilers at any load.
