🔍 Key Concepts

• steam purity and boiler water carryover and how impurities move with the steam • what conditions are needed for scale (solid deposits) to form inside tubes • the effect of temperature vs. contamination on scale formation

💭 Think About

• Which of these options actually introduces dissolved solids or impurities into the steam path going through the superheater? • Does simply being too hot create scale by itself, or does scale require minerals/solids carried into the tubes? • Think about how boiler water might reach the superheater and what happens when that water evaporates inside hot tubes.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice directly involves boiler water or moisture with dissolved solids entering the superheater tubes. • Ask: which condition would leave behind hard deposits after water turns to steam and then evaporates completely? • Eliminate options that only change temperature or flow but do not introduce new contaminants into the steam.
