🔍 Key Concepts

• how steam pressure in a boiler is created and maintained • what happens to steam pressure when water level is incorrect • how burner design (like sprayer plate size) can affect combustion and steam production

💭 Think About

• Which condition would most directly REDUCE the rate at which steam is formed in the boiler? • Does a lower steam demand make pressure go up or down, assuming the burner is firing normally? • How could an incorrect water level affect heat transfer from the furnace to the water and therefore steam pressure?

✅ Before You Answer

• Think about which option would most likely cause insufficient steam generation compared to demand. • Consider whether each choice would increase or decrease the efficiency of heat transfer to the water. • Make sure you can explain, in one sentence, how your chosen option leads to lower steam pressure in the drum.
