Design and Fracture Analysis of Husk Feed Boiler

Abstract

Boilers are closed vessel used for heating and steam generation, these are operated at high temperatures and pressures, safety is a major issue in boilers, these are subjected to corrosions and ware, boilers are porn to cracks and occurrences of a crack or existence of crack may lead to complete failure of malfunctioning of boiler 

In present wok a boiler is modelled using existing blue prints in catia and is tested using ansys work bench. Different cases with varying location of crack are studied and compared for better understanding of effect caused by cracks, boiler mountings, internal and external tubing is neglected in this model for easy of work
