The basic preparation of a high pressure boiler for start-up, the start-up and shutdown procedures and the routine safe and efficient operation of a packaged boiler is covered. Students are visually introduced to high pressure boilers in a power plant environment and are able to apply the components covered in the lectures to the real thing.
