🔍 Key Concepts

• Function of a steam drum in a water-tube (D-type) marine boiler • How steam and water are separated and stored in the boiler • Location and role of superheater and mud drum compared to steam drum

💭 Think About

• Think about what mixture (steam, water, or sludge) actually enters the steam drum from the generating tubes in normal operation. • Ask yourself: where in the boiler would you expect heavy solids and sludge to collect—high up or at the very bottom? • Consider where the superheater tubes are usually attached or located in relation to the gas flow path, not just the steam drum.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which component is normally used as a sludge or sediment collection point (hint: compare steam drum vs. mud drum). • Recall that the steam drum is at the top of the boiler—what physical process naturally happens there to a steam/water mixture? • Verify which option describes a function that directly improves steam quality (dryness) before it goes to the steam line.
