Steam generator information


A Steam generator is a device used to boil water to create steam. More specifically, it may refer to:

  • Boiler (steam generator), a closed vessel in which water is heated under pressure
  • Monotube steam generator
  • Supercritical steam generator or Benson boiler, a high-pressure steam generator that operates in the supercritical pressure regime, such that no boiling takes place within it.
  • Steam generator (auxiliary boiler), a steam-powered boiler used on ships to produce a low-pressure steam, heated by a high-pressure steam supply rather than a flame.
  • Steam generator (boiler), an oil- or gas-fired boiler, based on a low-water content monotube coil.
  • Steam generator (nuclear power), a heat exchanger in a pressurized water nuclear reactor.
  • Steam generator (railroad), a device used in trains to provide heat to passenger cars.
