    This document proposes a project to construct a Marcet boiler to generate steam between 0-15 bars. The Marcet boiler will consist of a water inlet valve, pressure gauge, safety valve, electric heater, and stainless steel boiler chamber. The project aims to determine the relationship between steam pressure and temperature using the boiler by measuring the slope of the graph of temperature versus pressure and comparing it to theoretical calculations from steam tables. Boilers have many uses including generating steam to drive turbines for electricity, for heating and air conditioning systems, and for industrial processes.

    SUPERVISED BY: MR AZEEZ O.
    ABSTRACT

    This project is focused on the construction of a marcet boiler
    which generates steam between 0 15 bar. The project was
    carried out to determine the relationship between the
    pressure and the temperature of saturated steam in
    equilibrium.
    The marcet boiler consists of:-
    Water inlet valve: used to regulate the supply of water
    and ensure the correct water level in the boiler
    Bourdon tube pressure gauge 0-15 bar: used to measure
    the pressure of the steam inside the marcet boiler
    Safety valve: used to prevent explosion due to excessive
    internal pressure of steam
    Electric heater: generate heat for boiling of the water
    Boiler, stainless steel: this is the chamber or cylinder
    where the water is heated






    THEORY

    Thermodynamics study about the interchange of heat and work
    between a system and the surroundings which occurs when the
    system undergoes a process. Thermodynamic also is concerned
    about the changes in the properties of fluid. Most
    thermodynamics substances such as gases and vapour are
    often referred as P-V-T substances. An ideal gas obeys the
    equation of state that relates the pressure, specific volume or
    density, and absolute temperature with mass of molecule and
    the gas constant R. PV = mRTM Where, P = Absolute pressure V
    = Volume n = Amount of substance (moles) R = Ideal gas
    constant T = Absolute temperature (K). However, real gas does
    not absolutely obey the equation of state. A few modifications
    on the ideal gas equation of state allow its application in the
    properties of real gas. When energy is added within water, the
    increasing of activities among the molecules causes the
    increase in the number of molecule escape from the surface
    until an equilibrium state is reached. The state of equilibrium
    depends on the pressure between the water surface and the
    steam. The lower the pressure, the easier the molecules leaving
    the water surface and thus less energy is required to achieve
    the state of equilibrium (boiling point). The temperature where
    equilibrium occurs at a given pressure level is called saturated
    temperature. The pressure where equilibrium occurs at a given
    temperature is called saturated pressure. Marcet Boiler is used
    to investigate the relationship between the pressure and
    temperature of saturated steam in equilibrium with water at all
    temperature levels between the atmospheric pressure and 15
    bars. The measured value of the slope of the graph (dT/dP)
    obtained from the experiment results can be compared to the
    theoretical value determined through calculation from the
    steam table.

    USES OF BOILERS
    Boilers have many functions depending on the where it is used.
    Some of these functions include:
    i. Generation of steam to drive turbines to generate
    electricity.
    ii. Generation of steam used in air conditioning system.
    iii. Its used for boiling water.
    iv. To generate steam to run ships using super-heated steam.
    v. For warming the ship during cold weather
    vi. For creating portable heat/hot water for buildings
    vii. Generation of steam for process application e.g textile
