🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler water circulation and how tube failures affect it • What happens to boiler water level when a major leak develops • Relationship between steam pressure, water loss, and furnace fires during a serious tube failure

💭 Think About

• Imagine a sudden large leak inside the boiler: where does the water go, and how quickly? • In that situation, would steam pressure logically increase or decrease as the leak continues? Why? • Are furnace fires guaranteed to go out every time, or can they sometimes continue burning despite abnormal conditions?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare which effect would be most immediate and most certain: change in pressure, fires going out, water level behavior, or sound of the fires • Think about basic conservation of mass: if a lot of water leaves the boiler through failed tubes, what does that do to the water level in the drum? • Decide which option describes a direct, inevitable result of many tubes failing, not just a possible side effect.
