Packaged type vertical coal-fired water-tube boiler: 100,000 pounds steam per hour (OCR-V-100). Interim report, February 1965--February 1968
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7233070
The report contains plans, specifications, and design drawings for a packaged, coal-fired vertical tube boiler with the steam capacity of 100,000 pounds per hour which is the largest achieved to date in a packaged, coal-fired unit. A packaged boiler is a unit that can be shipped from factory to the purchaser with a minimum requirement for field fabrication. This spreader stoker unit, called the OCR-V-100, consists mainly of two completely shop-fabricated sections which are rail transportable. Of considerable interest is the cost comparison with comparably rated field-erected coal-fired boilers and packaged oil or gas-fired boilers. The report projects that there will be an annual owning and operating cost saving of 4.6 to 5.2 percent by using the OCR-V-100 over comparable oil or gas units where a fuel cost differential of 12 cents per million Btu in favor of coal is observed.
