CHAPTER 2: OVERVIEW

1. Features of Product

1.1 Functions and Operating Principle

1.1.1 Functions

This boiler burns fuel oil and collects resultant heat to provide high-temperature, high-pressure

steam.

1.1.2 Operating Principle

<Feed water>

Feed water is pressurized by feed water pump and supplied to upper drum.

Water that is fed to upper drum is loaded into boiler body (upper drum, water tubes, and lower

drum).

<Combustion>

Heat to generate steam comes from combustion heat by burner. Fuel oil heated and pressurized

by fuel oil pump unit to right temperature and pressure, respectively, is supplied to burner. Boiler

employs two-fluid burner that uses atomized fluid (steam or compressed air) to atomize fuel oil

and combines atomized particles with air supplied by fan to cause combustion.

<Generation of steam>

Water in water tubes is heated by combustion heat from burner into gas-liquid phase, which rises

to upper drum. Liquid phase in water tubes without thermal load drops down to lower drum. This

series of actions causes natural circulation inside boiler body and allows heat recovery. Steam

generated in drum is subjected to steam separation to obtain saturated steam, which is supplied

to load side through main steam valve.

1.2 Product Components

This boiler consists of boiler body and following units:

Boiler body

Feed water pump (including feed water strainer and valves)

Fuel oil pump unit

Control panel

Fan

*This is standard configuration. For details about configuration of product that is delivered, refer to

final drawing.

2. Water and Steam Supply FlowTypical flow for this boiler is described here. Actual flow may be different from flow described here,

depending on specifications. Check pipe system diagram in final drawing before use.

2.1 Water and Steam Pipe System

Water in system is supplied to boiler body by feed water pump. Water sent to boiler is heated by

combustion heat into high-temperature, high-pressure steam. Generated steam is supplied to load

side and used as a heat source.

3. Fuel Supply FlowTypical flow for fuel pipe system of this boiler is described here. Actual flow may be different from flow

described here, depending on specification. For details about flow for product that is delivered, refer to

pipe system diagram in final drawing.

3.1 Fuel Pipe System

Figure 2-2 Fuel Pipe System Diagram

<Description of operation> (H.F.O.(*))a) All solenoid valves (SV-1 to SV-4) are closed when operation is stopped. When operation is started

and main fuel (*) oil pump (M-2) is brought into operation, fuel oil is circulated throughout fuel pipesystem leading back to oil air separator (*) via circulation relief valve (RV) and is heated by heater.

b) When H.F.O. is heated and pre-purge (*) is performed, solenoid valve for atomized fluid (SV-2) isopened. When pre-purge is completed, pilot fuel oil pump (M-4), ignition transformer(*), and solenoidvalve for pilot burner (SV-1) are started to form pilot flame(*).

c) When flame eye (*) detects pilot flame, solenoid valve for air-driven valve (SV-3) is started to openair-driven valve (AC-1), allowing main burner and pilot burner to form mixed flame. After mixedflame is formed, solenoid valve for pilot burner (SV-1) is shut off to put out pilot flame, and flamefrom main burner is formed.

d) While combustion is continued, pressurized fuel oil is still circulated throughout fuel pipe system viacirculation relief valve (RV) to keep fuel oil temperature and oil pressure stable.

Boiler consists of doughnut shaped upper drum and lower drum that are connected through water

tubes. Water tubes with narrow ends are arranged as shown Figure 2-7. Combustion gas flows in

two directions as shown by arrows and meets again at exit to be discharged from funnel. While water

in innermost water tubes is subjected to flame, other water tubes are subjected to combustion gas

that passes through them. This allows efficient transfer of heat to water.

Casing consists of welded inner casing and outer casing. Heat insulating material is placed between

water tubes and inner and outer casing to restrict radiation of heat.

Inner lower part of furnace and narrow end part of water tubes are insulated with castable to prevent

short path of combustion gas.

Upper and lower drums have manhole to check inside. Check condition of scaling, corrosion,

pitching on tubes, and reflect results in boiler water treatment (For more details, refer to Manual for

Water Treatment). At furnace inspection, check for soot adherence, peeling of castable, fuel leakage

on furnace bottom, traces of water leakage and accumulations of unburnable materials.

6. Boiler Automatic Operation by Sequencer

6.1 Overview

Sequence control is automatic control that completes each control step following procedure that is

provided in advance.

This boiler starts fuel oil pump and fan operation, and after pre purge is completed sufficiently, ignition

device is started; after fuel valve is opened to ignite burner, start-stop of burner is controlled by steam

pressure switch. These steps are carried out automatically.

6.3 Operation Explanation of Steam Pressure Control

6.3.1 Proportional Control

Steam pressure regulator installed on control panel controls boiler burner and adjusts steam

pressure.

a) For 30 seconds after ignition, low combustion (20% load) is kept not to put boiler under heavy load.

30 seconds later, boiler is held under proportional control so that normal working pressure can be

kept in response to changes in steam pressure.

b) When steam consumption is lowered and boiler steam pressure is increased to reach higher

pressure limit, burner is stopped and post-purge(*) is performed.

c) When boiler steam pressure is decreased to lower pressure limit, combustion is started again

under proportional control so that normal working pressure is kept.

*1: At start of operation, atomized air is used (with M.D.O.(*)) to increase boiler steam pressure to 0.7

MPa.

Refer to page 34 “2.4 Starting Combustion with M.D.O” in Chapter 4.

Note

When air is used as atomized fluid, only M.D.O. can be used as fuel, and proportional control

cannot be used. (Forced low fire)

1.2 Safety Valve

WARNING

Prohibition

Improper adjustment of blow off pressure of safety valve may damage boiler body.

As a rule, do not adjust blow off pressure of safety valve.

Remodeling of safety valve may damage boiler body.

As a rule, do not remodel safety valve.

Instruction

If steam leak from safety valve is found, replace part and repair it immediately.

When steam leak is left, function of safety valve is decreased and there is possibility of

leading to serious accident

Safety valve is safety device that is installed to prevent boiler steam pressure from exceeding

maximum allowable working pressure; full-bore safety valve is used for this boiler. Normally, safety

valve does not operate because steam pressure switch works. When pressure switch does not work

for some reason and combustion is continued to cause abnormal steam pressure increase or rapid

pressure increase is caused by rapid load change, safety valve protects boiler by blowing steam off

and lowering steam pressure. As a rule, two or more safety valves are installed and they are

selected so that total blow off level exceeds the maximum evaporation level of boiler for safety.

Boiler safety valve is set at presence of inspector, so as to blow off at strictly limited pressure;

nobody is allowed to make attempt of further adjustment on board. However, only in case of

emergency, such as when safety valve leaks, some countermeasures, such as opening or adjusting

valve, can be taken at discretion of chief engineer. In that case, adjust blow off pressure of safety

valve according to procedure that is described in next page.

4. Monthly Inspection and Maintenance

4.1 Fan

DANGER

Instruction

Inspect fan once a month. Failure to inspect fan may cause it to break or fly apart due to

deterioration of impeller or external force, resulting in injury or death.

WARNING

Instruction

Before moving impeller by hand, turn off main power supply. If impeller is rotated accidentally

during maintenance, physical injury may be caused.

4.1.1 Overview

Fan, which forces air into boiler, secures wind pressure and wind flow by rotating impeller by motor.

This boiler has fan with high wind pressure and high revolution speed because combustion gas

speed is high for efficient heat exchange with combustion gas.

Attention and care are required to prevent foreign particles from clogging wire mesh of suction.

When there is significant vibration even after impeller is cleaned, bearing replacement or impeller

adjustment is required.

Page 71: HB-T E990-1112-03

4.3 Fuel Flexible Tube

WARNING

Instruction

Do not give impact to boiler fuel pipe or bend any part of it.

Failure to observe this instruction may cause fuel oil leak, resulting in fire.

Flexible tube on burner is used at high temperature and high pressure.

Generally, it needs to be replaced once every 1 or 2 years.

4.4 Oil Flow Control Valve, Air Flow Controller, and Damper

WARNING

Instruction

Equipment has been brought into optimum state in trial operation. Do not make changes to

state after trial operation. Failure to observe this instruction may cause poor combustion,

backfire (*), or other accidents. If changes are made for unavoidable reasons, contact MIURA

offices and ask for instructions.

4.4.1 Overview

Fuel oil flow rate and air flow rate are adjusted by oil flow control valve, air flow controller, and

damper.

Oil flow control valve changes its opening to adjust fuel oil flow rate. By rotating control motor on oil

flow control valve shaft, slot in shaft is rotated to change inner opening.

Air flow controller attunes throttling characteristics of oil flow control valve to air flow throttling

characteristics of damper. It has leaf spring bent into a fan-like shape, along which damper drive arm

moves. This leaf spring has 8 adjustment bolts, with which spring's shape can be changed to adjust

air flow throttling characteristics of damper. This mechanism adjusts air flow to optimum rate for

combustion levels at different combustion loads.

Damper is subject to continuous vibration and external force and must be checked for loose parts.

Page 75: HB-T E990-1112-03

60

4.4.2 Inspection

Loose parts of damper cause changes in damper opening. Check damper drive arm and leaf spring

for loose lock screws on a monthly basis. If loose parts are found, retighten them or apply grease.

Coupling is connects motor and air flow controller shaft by tightening lock screw. Inspect looseness

of lock screw once a month because it can not control combustion normally when lock screw is

loosened. If loose parts are found, retighten them additionally and check that control motor opening

and air flow control valve opening have not deviated from position in trial operation.

4.5 Control Motor

4.5.1 Overview

Control motor controls oil flow control valve and damper to realize proper combustion conditions for

different pressure conditions according to signals from steam pressure regulator. It also has cam

switches in it, which notify control panel of damper position.

Because it repeats opening and closing constantly during combustion control, parts of control motor

inside are consumed gradually. Generally, it needs to be replaced at every docking.

Figure 5-10 Control Motor

4.5.2 Inspection

If control motor is failed, it cannot be burned normally.

Inspect fixed screw and wiring for looseness every month.

Page 77: HB-T E990-1112-03

4.6 Flame Eye (*)

Figure 5-11 Flame Eye

4.6.1 Overview

Flame eye is a device that detects flame during combustion and gives instruction to combustion

circuit. It monitors flame by using photosensitive characteristic of CdS (cadmium sulfide cell)

(Normally, when resistance of 100 kΩ catches flame, it drops under 500 Ω).

If flame eye is damaged or protection glass is blackened with soot, it cannot detect flame and

stops burner and brings it to the same state as when ignition failure or flame-out occurs.

4.6.2 Inspection and Cleaning

Ignite burner with burner switch and look in furnace through sight window. If flame dies out about 3

or 4 seconds after burner is ignited, flame eye or flame detector may be out of order or protection

glass soiled. Inspect and clean protection glass on a monthly basis.

6. Yearly Inspection and Maintenance

6.1 Fuel Oil Heater (*)

6.1.1 Combined Use of Electricity and Steam

Heater that uses both electricity and steam as shown in figure below is used to heat heavy oil to

proper temperature.

Figure 5-39 Fuel Oil Heater (Electricity/Steam)

Electric heater contains nichrome wire coil with high thermal conductivity as heating element in the

center of pipe, and is filled with special fused powder with excellent electric insulation at high

temperature.

To save electric capacity, heater body is heated by steam from outside. Thus, electric heater is

combined with steam.

Both steam and electric heater are controlled by opening or closing steam solenoid valve with fuel

oil temperature controller.

If sludge adheres to heater, poor combustion or abnormal heating may be caused due to unstable

control. Clean inside of heater on a yearly basis.

<Overview>

Electric heater as shown in figure is used as standard to heat heavy oil used as fuel to proper

temperature. Heater is installed on outlet side of oil pump and oil temperature is regulated by

temperature controller.

Fuel oil heater contains nichrome wire coil as heating element in the center of pipe for high

conductivity, and is filled with special powder that has excellent electric insulation at high

temperature; these materials are solidified under high pressure.

<Inspection and maintenance>

Long-term use of fuel oil heater causes accumulation of oily sludge in heater, which may lower

heating temperature or damage element due to insulation failure.

Open and clean fuel oil heater on a yearly basis.

In addition, raise discharge pressure of fuel oil pump and check operation of safety valve.

Note Sludge remaining after cleaning may cause leaks from solenoid valves.

Remove it completely by flushing or by another method.

Figure 5-41 Water Level Gauge and Water Level Detecting Rod

Water level detecting rod is installed on the top and bottom of steam drum (on steam side and water

side) with valves. Rod contains water level gauge glass to serve as both water level gauge and water

level detecting rod.

Water level gauge is important device for safety to check if prescribed water level is kept in boiler. As

glass of water level gauge must be kept clean, clean it by blowing water level gauge at least once a

day.

Reflective gauge glass is used for water level gauge, and size depends on rules of vessel

classification.

Aside from water level gauge, which is designed to visually check water level, water gauge column

has four (or five) water level detecting rods (3) with different lengths, which electrically detect water

level and put out signal to automatically start/stop feed water pump or to automatically stop burner

when low low level is detected. Stainless detecting rod is screwed in electrode holder and further

tightened with set screws. As water level detecting rod may get dirty with concentrated boiler water

and cause malfunction, pull water level detecting rods out and clean them at least once every three

months.

<Inspection and Maintenance>

a) Continuity and insulation check of electrode holder.

• Check continuity and insulation of electrode holder every three months.

• Replace electrode holder periodically (once every 2 years) as aged deterioration causes

insulation and continuity failure.

Continuity check ○a to ○c : 0Ω

Insulation check ○a to ○b : 0.1 MΩ or above

b) If continuity or insulation failure is found, replace electrode holder.

<How to blow water level gauge>

6.3 Flame Detector (FS-901)

Flame detector is auxiliary relay that is installed to detect burner flame and output electric signal.

Figure 5-43 Flame Detector

<Inspection>

Check on a yearly basis that voltage between terminals [3] and [4] of flame detector during

combustion does not exceed 2.5 V. If voltage exceeds 2.5 V, check whether or not flame eye (*)

glass and light sensitive surface of flame eye are dirty. If they are dirty, clean them.

Refer to page 62 “4.5 Flame Eye” in Chapter 5.

If voltage exceeds 2.5 V even after cleaning, there is possibility of failure of flame eye or flame

detector. In that case, replace flame eye with a spare one. If voltage exceeds 2.5 V again, there is

high possibility of failure of flame detector. In that case, replace flame detector.

5. Trouble Shooting for Boiler Body

CAUTION

Caution: Hot

Before working on water tube leaks, check water tubes and burner funnel that may be

touched are fully cooled. Otherwise, you may suffer from burn. For more information,

contact MIURA offices.

Checking Leaked Water Tubes

No leakage from water tube of GK type boiler occurs if water quality control is carried out properly.

Boiler external treatment and boiler internal treatment with boiler compound are absolutely essential.

If leakage is found from boiler water tube due to improper boiler water treatment, check it as follows:

a) Remove burner and wind box (*) from the upper part of boiler. Open manhole of funnel on

exhaust gas side.

b) Enter boiler combustion chamber and funnel inside on exhaust gas side to check water tube wall

(Obvious leakage may be detected at glance in this stage).

c) Switch feed water pump to manual operation and perform a hydraulic test.

d) If water is leaking from joint of water tube and tube plate, remove refractory castable around

water tube swaged area and inspect whole area.

When water is leaking from back side of the first row of tubes toward the second row of tubes, it is

easily considered that water is leaking from the second row of tubes. Therefore, check it carefully

in full consideration of above.

e) When leaking water tubes are found, insert stoppers or replace tubes with new ones.

Refer to page 124 “6. Repairing Damaged Water Tubes” in Chapter 6.

f) Investigate cause of water tube leakage for future reference. If leakage came from improper

water treatment, take secure measures to prevent recurrence.

If leakage is found on exhaust gas economizer side, open manhole on exhaust gas

inlet and outlet and hand holes in the middle part and find where leakage is occurring.

Page 139: HB-T E990-1112-03

6. Repairing Damaged Water Tubes

WARNING

Instruction

Stopper treatment and furnace building with refractory is temporary treatment. Do not

operate for a long time; otherwise, there is possibility of serious accident. Contact each

classification in advance and replace water tubes (or body) immediately at periodical

inspection. Contact MIURA offices about replacement of water tubes (or body).

Before inspecting interior, stop main engine. Purge with the bottom blow and fan, and cool

both the inside of drum and combustion chamber. Then make sure that pressure inside the

drum is 0 MPa. Also, make sure ventilation is provided by air duct and/or the ventilator fan

during inspection.

This boiler is vertical natural-circulation boiler.

If boiler water is not controlled according to "Manual for Water Treatment,” that is provided separately,

impurities in feed water (calcium, magnesium, and silica) may be accumulated and turned into scale

on heating surface, that could hinder heat exchange process, damage water tubes, or cause

leakage.

To operate this boiler most economically and efficiently, it is essential to control boiler water by

blowing down boiler and using proper boiler compounds and water softener. This chapter describes

ways to fix damaged water tubes and leakage that are caused by unsatisfactory boiler water

treatment.

6.1 Insertion of Stoppers from Inside of Water Drum

This method uses iron stoppers that are included as spare

parts to plug tubes from inside the upper and lower steam

drums and water drum. Before inserting the stoppers,

determine which water tube(s) is/are leaking.

Refer to page 123. “5. Trouble Shooting for Boiler

Body” in Chapter 6

Once it is identified leaking water tube(s), enter drum

through manhole and insert stoppers from inside as it is

shown in the figure.

In this case, clean thoroughly contact surface between

stopper and water tube so that dust or other foreign materials

do not get caught in surface; this is especially important if

there is some sort of damage. It is also effective to polish

parts with carborundum or a similar material.

6.2 Stopper Welding from Combustion Chamber

Figure 6-2 Stopper Welding from Combustion Chamber

This method is the same as the previous method up to the point that water pressure test is conducted inside

combustion chamber to determine which pipe(s) is/are leaking. However, stoppers are used in completely

different way. In this method, stoppers are welded from inside of combustion chamber as it is shown in

figure. Therefore, the first prerequisite for using this method is to have certified welder on board.

Figure 6-3 Stopper Welding from Inside of Combustion Chamber

If it is undertaken stopper treatment from just the top and bottom without welding stoppers, there is

possibility that water tube (that does not contain water) is damaged and water is leaked to exhaust gas side.

Therefore, the previous type of work should be completed only in case of emergency; it is strongly

recommended that stoppers are welded once ship reaches port. However, if there is some technical issue,

such as with welders, or application of refractory castable is omitted (refer to above figure), other problems

may be caused. Therefore, it is necessary to follow instructions of MIURA offices.

CHAPTER 7: STORAGE

1. Maintenance When Boiler is Shut Down for a Long TimeWhen boiler is shut down for a long time, it is important to store it properly. Before boiler is shut down,

wash soot off boiler and clean and fully dry inside of furnace. In addition, pour silica gel to protect

against rust.

Conduct procedure for shutdown according to Manual for Water Treatment.

2. Movement or Resale

WARNING

Prohibition

Do not perform installation work and connection of incidental equipment unless it is

specified.

Failure to observe this instruction may cause physical injury.
