Continuous Blowdown Tank
The continuous blowdown flash tank is connected to the boiler’s continuous blowdown outlet and serves to reduce the pressure and expand the volume of the boiler’s continuous blowdown before discharging it. The secondary steam is routed through a dedicated pipeline, typically to the deaerator, while the waste hot water is automatically discharged via a float‑type level control valve or an overflow‑adjustment valve, usually into a fixed‑drain flash tank, allowing the thermal energy to be recovered and reused. The continuous blowdown flow rate is automatically adjusted in response to changes in the boiler feedwater load, maintaining a relatively stable blowdown rate. By utilizing the secondary steam and waste hot water as heat sources, a portion of the heat lost in the boiler’s continuous blowdown can be recovered, thereby improving boiler efficiency.

Structure and Function
The expansion vessel consists of a main body, auxiliary components, and other parts. The main body comprises a cylindrical shell, elliptical end caps, a manhole, and internal fittings. These internal fittings include wear‑resistant devices, cooling water inlet assemblies, and overflow devices, among others.
