  • Marine waste heat steam generator
    Patent number: 4054107
    Abstract: A stem generator with its sections arranged for the limited space available in a marine installation. The heated surfaces are exposed to both the products of combustion of original fuels and the discharge from the prime movers of marine propulsion. The water being vaporized is positively pumped up through the heated surfaces to the short length upper steam separator drum. The superheat surfaces are arranged in modular form so they may be readily replaced and can also be drained of collected liquid when maintenance is required.

  • Marine vapor generator having low temperature reheater
    Patent number: 3956898
    Abstract: A vapor generator organization arranged for operation in a marine reheat power plant is described in which the reheater tube bundle is disposed in the rear gas pass section of the unit where it is subjected only to low temperature combustion gas during periods of ship maneuvering when no vapor flow occurs through the reheater tubes. A separately fired burner arrangement is operably disposed in the rear gas pass and adapted to be fired at times when the reheater is operative in the system.
