What’s the difference between a boiler and thermaic fluid heater
2016-09-09 16:11:33Boiler
Boilers are used to heat water & produce steam. This is commonly done by 2 ways:
1. Fire-tube: Hot flue gases (combustion gases) pass through tubes submerged in water. Water gets heated due to conduction through the fire-tubes.
2. Water-tube: Here, water flows through the tubes, which are heated by - (i) Radiation from hot flames, & (ii) Convection from hot flue gases.
Thermic Fluid Heater
Thermic fluid heaters are used just to heat the water, not necessarily producing steam. Water is heated by passing hot thermic fluid in tubes submerged in water. This arrangement is similar to the fire-tube boiler described above,except that thermic fluid is passed through the tubes instead of flue gases.
