Water-Tube Boiler

StarStarStarStar

In this boiler, water flows inside the tubes and is heated by external combustion gases. Often used in high-pressure environments on modern ships.

StarStarStarStar

Scotch Marine Boiler

StarStarStarStar

A type of fire-tube boiler where the combustion chamber is lined with tubes causing the flue gas to make several passes, thereby heating the water more efficiently. It is commonly found on ships because of its compact size.

StarStarStarStar

Forced Circulation Boiler

StarStarStarStar

Employs a pump to force water through the tubes, allowing the boiler to operate at higher pressures. Ideal for ships that need a solid steam capacity without the size constraints.

StarStarStarStar

Fire-Tube Boiler

StarStarStarStar

This boiler type has gases flowing inside tubes that are submerged in water. Commonly found on older marine vessels due to simpler design.

StarStarStarStar

Composite Boiler

StarStarStarStar

Combines the features of fire-tube and water-tube boilers. It can use both the exhaust gases and oil firing to produce steam and is used on ships with space constraints.

StarStarStarStar

Vertical Boiler

StarStarStarStar

This type of boiler has a vertical cylindrical design. It is utilized for low steam demand and limited space ships.

StarStarStarStar

Two-Drum Water-Tube Boiler

StarStarStarStar

Has two drums with water tubes connecting them. The upper drum collects steam while the lower drum contains water. They're highly efficient and used in large cargo ships.

StarStarStarStar

Exhaust Gas Boiler

StarStarStarStar

Utilizes the exhaust heat from the ship's main diesel engine to generate steam. Primarily used to improve overall fuel efficiency.

StarStarStarStar

Steam Atomization Boiler

StarStarStarStar

This boiler uses a process where steam is used to atomize the fuel, improving combustion efficiency and reducing emissions. It's particularly useful for meeting strict environmental standards on ships.

StarStarStarStar

Controlled Circulation Boiler

StarStarStarStar

Incorporates a system of valves and pumps to control the circulation of water. It is designed for extremely high pressure and temperature applications, often found on modern steam ships and special vessels.
