Why pressure gauge and safety valve are made use of in the Schmidt-Hartmann boiler?(a) Safety against fire causes(b) To control the burst/blast of the boiler due to variance in pressure(c) Safe guard against leakage accidents(d) Act as controller against overheating of water in the boiler and boiler tubesI got this question in homework.My question comes from Types of High Pressure Boilers topic in section Steam Generators & Accessories of Energy Engineering

Answer»

The correct choice is (c) Safe guard against leakage accidents

To EXPLAIN I would say: In normal circumstances, REPLENISHMENT of DISTILLED water in the primary circuit is not required as every care is taken in the design and construction to prevent leakages. But as a safeguard against leakage ACCIDENTAL loss, a pressure gauge and safety valve are fitted in the Schmidt-Hartmann BOILER’s circuit.
