A fire Tube boiler is a simple form of the internal furnace. It is a vertical fire tube boiler. Fire tube boilers are actually portable boiler that requires a small floor space. Fire Tube boilers have a compact design with efficient heat transfer capabilities. This makes them ideal for applications in limited space. Additionally, their portable nature makes them perfect for easy installation and relocation. Thus this is a versatile thing used in various settings.

The heat of the gases is passed through the walls of the tubes by thermal conduction, heating the water and the entire system ultimately creating steam. The fire-tube boiler is developed as the third of the four major historical types of boilers: low-pressure tanks known as “haystack” boilers, flued boilers featured with one or two large flues, fire-tube boilers with many small tubes, and high-pressure water-tube boilers. Their advantage over flued boilers with a single large flue is that the many small tubes are also offering a far greater heating surface area for the same overall boiler volume. O’Brien Boiler Services Pty Ltd has a large range of collection of different steam boilers.

Fire tube steam boiler contains a vertical, cylindrical shell, featured with a firebox in the bottom, water space in the middle portion, and steam space is also featured in the upper portion. The fire grate is positioned at the bottom of the firebox and coal is fired at the firebox. An ash pit is placed at the bottom of the grate to accumulate the ash of burnt coal, which is periodically removed. To get more information, visit : https://obrien-energy.com.au/boilers/steam-boilers/
