🔍 Key Concepts

• Fire-tube auxiliary boiler construction (location of furnace, tubes, crown sheet, water space, and steam space) • Purpose and operation of fusible plugs in boilers • Effect of low water level on metal surfaces exposed to the furnace

💭 Think About

• Visualize a fire-tube boiler and ask yourself: when the water level gets very close to the crown sheet, which metal parts lose proper water cooling first? • Think about what fusible plugs are designed to do: do they respond to too much steam, low water, or overheating metal? • Consider which of the listed problems would most likely occur first as the water level drops, before any catastrophic failure.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on what the crown sheet is and whether it should be covered by water or steam during normal operation. • Review how fusible plugs work: where are they installed and what condition they are meant to warn/protect against. • Ask: which option describes an initial protective response to overheating, and which describe more severe or final outcomes like structural failure or explosion.
