Abstract

A boiler is disclosed in which the furnace is divided into a lower furnace and an upper furnace. The lower furnace uses water-cooled membrane walls, while the upper furnace uses steam-cooled membrane walls that act as superheating surfaces. The upper furnace and the convection pass are also located next to each other, so that they share a common steam-cooled wall. There is no open pass between the furnace and the convection pass.
