Power plants need a constant supply of water to produce steam in a boiler. Water is heated as it travels through boiler tubes and turns into steam capable of driving a steam generator. The Function of Boiler Water and Steam Systems training course examines the common boiler types and how their boiler water and steam systems are arranged. Understanding these principles is critical to safely operate a power plant boiler.

This course describes:

• Natural-circulation boiler water systems
• Natural-circulation boiler steam systems
• Forced-circulation boilers

This course is part of the Boiler Water and Steam Systems training series.
