A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications,[1][page needed][2][page needed] including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

Boilers for Heat and Steam Production in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Applications. Boilers are also known as steam generators; they are a closed vessel in which water is converted into steam through the application of heat. The steam is used for driving steam engines or steam turbines for power generation.

In a nuclear power plant, boilers called steam generators are heated by the heat produced by nuclear fission. Where a large volume of hot gas is available from some process, a heat recovery steam generator or recovery boiler can use the heat to produce steam, with little or no extra fuel consumed, such a configuration is common in a combined cycle power plant where a gas …

A steam boiler is a power generation device, used for generating steam by applying the heat energy to water. The pressure range of earlier boilers ranges from low pressure to medium pressure (7 kPa to 2000 kPa/ 1psi to 290 psi). The present boilers are more useful because it works with high pressure than old ones.
