The primary purpose of the boiler is to supply energy to the facility's operations – for comfort heating, manufacturing process, laundry, kitchen, etc. The nature of the facility's operation will dictate whether a steam or hot water boiler should be used. Hot water is commonly used in heating applications, with the boiler supplying water to the system at 120°F to 220°F.

What is the boiler horsepower of a boiler generating 21,500 lbs of steam per hour at 155 psi? The factor of evaporation is 1.08. BHP = (LB/HR*fe)/34.5 BHP = (LB/HR*fe)/34.5 BHP = 21500 * 1.08 / 34.5 BHP = 673 Where, BHP boiler horsepower Lb/Hr pounds per hour Fe factor of evaporation (can be assumed to be equal to 1)
