Explain the working of La-mont boiler
La-mont boiler:
Working: The La-mont boiler consists Boiler shell, combustion chamber, evaporator, economizer, circulating pump, super heater, and steam drum. This is modern high pressure boiler; it is water tube steam boiler working on forced circulation. Circulation is maintained by the centrifugal pump. The feed water passes through the economizer to the drum from which it is drawn to the circulating pump. The pump delivers the water to the evaporating section which in turn sends a mixture of steam and water to the drum. The steam in the drum is then drawn through the super heater. The superheated steam so obtained is then supplied to the prime mover.
