ME Laboratory 2 - Activity 1
OBJECTIVE:
To make a thorough study of a steam generating units and all accessories associated in it.
BRIEF BACKGROUND
A steam generating unit is composed of a boiler furnace and some of all various accessories
essential to its efficiency of steam generation. These accessories are fuel burning equipment,
superheater, reheater coil economizer, an air heater. The boiler from which water or another
liquid vaporizer may be classified according to:
APPARATUS
The package type boiler in the ME laboratory. (Illustration only)
ACTIVITY
1. Make a multi-view sketch of the boiler in the ME laboratory. Label all important parts and
indicate complete specification of the equipment or vessels.
