🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler priming: what it is and why it is dangerous • Effect of water carryover into the steam line and engine/turbine • Normal immediate actions to protect machinery when wet steam or water slugs are suspected

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens inside the engine or turbine if water is carried over with the steam. Which action best protects that equipment right away? • Which option would help remove any collected water from the steam line/throttle rather than forcing more water into the system? • Which choice could make priming worse by increasing carryover from the boiler surface into the steam line?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options increase vs decrease boiler output/steaming rate. • Ask yourself which action specifically deals with draining water from the steam line or throttle area. • Eliminate any option that would create a sudden or dangerous condition in the boiler itself, such as opening a bottom blow on a boiler under load.
