Answer»

The correct option is (a) AVOID excessive heating of tube

The BEST I can EXPLAIN: The boiler is started from cold by circulating the feed water from the hot WELL by operating the starting VALVE. While taking the boiler on range, starting valve is closed and valve 2 is opened. This method avoids excessive heating of tubes.
