摘要：This research work presents a detailed work on the preliminary design, of a heat recovery boiler for a 100-man houseboat. The results obtained from this work shows that the following factors must be duly considered; the operating temperatures and pressure, the quality of steam, layout of heating surfaces, heating surface requirements, circulation of steam and water, capacity of boiler drum, materials and method of construction were obtained. To design an economically sound boiler, proper evaluation of the factors influencing the design and installation of steam generating equipment, to produce the required quantity of steam at the designed temperatures and pressure were taken into consideration. The design a boiler looked into the “must fit easily” property and the minimum engine room space factor. Also considered in the design is the accessible, safe operation, inspection and maintenance of the boiler. A mathematical model software was used to validate model equations and also check the effectiveness of the boiler at the various loads and designed parameters.
