🔍 Key Concepts

• Operation of a return flow (spill type) oil burner in marine boilers • How atomization is controlled versus how total fuel flow and pressure are controlled • Function of metering/adjusting devices in the burner fuel supply line

💭 Think About

• In a return-flow burner, part of the fuel returns to the tank or suction. Which component sets how much of the total flow is actually sprayed through the nozzle? • Which option sounds like a fine metering device for small changes in actual atomized flow, rather than a general shutoff or pressure-setting valve? • Think about what directly changes when you want to raise or lower boiler firing rate at a constant supply pressure.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which component is designed for precise metering of oil rather than simply opening/closing flow. • Distinguish between a valve that controls system pressure and one that controls actual nozzle throughput. • Confirm which device is usually adjusted by the automatic combustion control system to vary burner firing rate.
