Investigation of water flow and thermal characteristics in a fire tube boiler by using fluent / Mohd Isa Mohd Nasaruddin
Fire tube boiler is a one type of boiler. It is developed as the second of the three major historical types of boilers which are low-pressure tank, fire tube boiler and high-pressure water tube boiler. Sometimes fired tube boiler is called as a smoke tube boiler or shell boiler. A fired tube boiler...
