Boiler Control Survey Report.

Abstract

The objective of Task O was to determine the types of boiler control systems currently in use at government owned facilities, and to identify the basic operating concepts of each system. It was originally intended to provide a breakdown of control system types by manufacturer and date of use. Baily, Hagan, Hays, Republic, and Cleveland systems were to be identified for each of the three time periods: 1940 to 1959, 1960 to 1975, and 1975 to present. However, as the study progressed, it was found that this approach was clearly not practical. It was decided after discussion with the Naval Civil Engineering Lab at Port Hueneme, that the three most commonly employed operating concepts, jackshaft, pneumatic and electronic, would be examined. Logic diagrams, functional schematic diagrams and a brief operating description were prepared for each type of system. (Author)
