Abstract

A forced-flow once-through boiler for variable supercritical pressure operation comprises burners, water-wall tubes constituting the surrounding walls of a furnace and which are themselves made up of banks of vertical generating tubes for simultaneous upward flow, and a convection-heating type evaporator mounted between the outlets of the water-wall tubes and a water separator.
