Product catalog summary
Introduction
The BWD series fire-tube boilers, designed by BABCOCK WANSON, are available in capacities ranging from 1 to 10 t/h and 682 to 6,793 kW. These boilers are characterized by their 3-pass semi-wet back design, ensuring durability and efficiency.
Design and Durability
The flue gas reversal chamber is co-axially located with the furnace tube, optimizing mechanical stress distribution and enhancing the boiler shell's longevity, especially during frequent start/stop cycles.
Maintenance and Accessibility
The design includes a double compartment in the outer section of the transfer chamber, cooled by water, which improves heat transfer and provides direct access to the first tube nests. This design reduces maintenance costs and addresses the fragility issues found in conventional wet back boilers.
Compactness and Flexibility
The boiler's centred fire-box and optimized tube distribution allow efficient use of space. The Babcock Wanson burners offer a wide operating range with turn down ratios up to 8:1 when using gas.
Efficiency
The BWD boilers achieve a high efficiency of 95% with an optional economiser. The design ensures stable combustion and consistent efficiency from 30% to 100% load.
Steam Quality
The steam separator inside the boiler shell ensures a dryness guarantee of 99.5%, supported by the rapid response time of the burner.
Operating Modes
Equipment options are available for fully manned, supervised, or fully unattended operation, providing flexibility in control and instrumentation.
Performance Graph
The efficiency graph illustrates performance with and without economisers, showing efficiency levels across various steam loads.

Fire-tube Boiler - BWD-1

1 to 10 t/h,682 to 6 793 kW The BWD is a 3-pass semi-wet backfire tube boiler exclusively designed by BABCOCK WANSON. High efficiency, 95% with optional economiser > The optimised matching of the BWD boiler shell and the Babcock Wanson burnerenables an efficiency of 95% with economiser. A constant efficiency is obtained from 30 to 100% load over the whole modulation range thanks to stable combustion dueto the geometry of the burner head. Sturdiness and long lifeassociated with its design > The flue gas reversal chamber, locatedco-axially with the furnace tube, ensures optimum distribution of the mechanical stresses which contributes to the long lifeof the boiler shell, notably for significantstart/stop cycles. Efficiency PACK without ECONOMISER with ECONOMISERwith ECOSTEAM Easy accessibility of thetubes provides better and lower maintenance cost > Efficiency % 7525507510080859010095 The outer section of the transfer chamberwhich is cooled by the water, is equipped with a double compartment. This particu- lar BABCOCK WANSON design improves the heat transfer and allows direct access to the first tube nests. This eliminates the frequent problem of fragility affecting the tie rods on conventional wet back boilers. Non contractual values Steam load % Steam quality > The steam separator located inside the boiler shell, under the steam outlet, and the rapid burner response time, ensure that the dryness guarantee is 99.5%. Operating modes > Equipment options include control and instrumentation for either fully manned, supervised or fullyunattended operation. Compactness andflexibility > The centred fire-box and the optimiseddistribution of the second and third pass convection tubes enables best possible use of site space. BABCOCK WANSONburners provide a wide operating range,with turn down ratios of up to 8:1 when firing on gas. size="-2">
