Abstract: A cartridge boiler designed for use in multiples in a furnace, each cartridge boiler having a vertically oriented cylindrical drum top and bottom with hemispherical end caps, with a plurality of free-expansion boiler tubes having internal feed water supply tubes depending in a cluster through the bottom end cap. The supply tubes are gravity fed by an open feed water pan within the drum, the feed water supply being controlled by a boiler level monitoring device. The boilers are used in multiples to generate the steam required, the relative small size of individual cartridge boiler being designed to minimize fabrication costs by minimizing drum diameters, and maximize system performance by allowing select cartridge replacement without system shutdown.

Abstract: Heat exchanger comprising a first enclosure in which heat is supplied, in thermal contact with at least one second enclosure at the top of which arrives a cold heat transfer fluid in the liquid state and at least one pipe, placed in the second enclosure, via which the fluid is discharged in the form of vapor or a liquid-vapor mixture, wherein the second enclosure incorporates a filling making it possible to regulate the outflow of fluid to the bottom of the second container and the partial transformation of said fluid into vapor which can escape by means of the pipe which, for this purpose, has holes arranged over its entire height.

Abstract: Water is flowed through bayonet tubes where it is heated to steam which is superheated in other bayonet tubes all the bayonet tubes extending from a single tube sheet. Heated water enters the inner tube of a bayonet tube assembly so that it is heated in the annulus between the inner tube and its associated outer tube and then flows into the annular space between the inner and outer tube of the second bayonet tube assembly so that it is is heated to steam to leave by the inner tube of the second bayonet tube assembly to then flow into the annular space between the inner and outer tubes of the third bayonet tube assembly to be superheated and leave the third bayonet assembly by the inner tube thereof, the flow between one or more of the bayonet tube assemblies being connected by connecting tubes which connect with thermal sleeves covering the inner tubes of the bayonet tube assemblies below the single tube sheet.
