A steam boiler is a closed vessel made of steel whosefunction is to transfer heat produced by combustion of fuel towater to produce steam.
The steam so produced may be supplied:
a) To a steam engine or steam turbine
b) For industrial process work in sugar factories, cotton millsetc.
c) For heating installations.
