Steam Accumulators

Steam Accumulators Like any other machine, boiler manufacturing has also undergone a sea-change in the last century. Today’s boilers are much more efficient than the boiler so past as there has been constant pressure on designers to make these more and more energy efficient. The ever increasing competition has forced the boiler users to turn to non-conventional fuels, which in turn has resulted in compact boilers to suit the demands.Today the boilers have been reduced in size as higher efficiency and quick response is the demand of the day. Compact designs are preferred so as to have lesser footprint and initial costs have also reduced as the buyers need cheaper options. However, to meet these demands, one important aspect of boiler design has been compromised i.e. water & steam holding space. The actual energy gets stored in a boiler in form of water it holds as saturation temperature. Greater the amount of water holding volume in a boiler, greater is the energy stored which is required to answer surge demands or high instantaneous steam loads.
