                         THERMAL POWER PLANT BOILER TUBES A  water tube boiler  can be defined as a Steam  boiler  in which the flow of  water  in the  tubes , as well as hot gases, enclose the  tubes . Not like fire  tube boilers , this  boiler  attains high-pressures, as well as high-steam capabilities, can be achieved. The  steam  generators of the  660 MW  units would be 100%  coal  fired and would be rated to generate about 2170 t/hr each, of superheated  steam  at about 250 kg/ cm2 pressure and 568°C temperature. Reheat  steam  temperature would also be 568°C. Boiler Erection of Water Tubes...... How do I find a leak in my boiler tube? For detecting  boiler tube  leaks, plant operating engineers constantly monitor  boiler  furnace vacuum, which is maintained between a -10 to -20 mm water column...
