Difference between Boiler (power generation) and Heat exchanger

Boiler (power generation) vs. Heat exchanger

A boiler or steam generator is a device used to create steam by applying heat energy to water. A heat exchanger is a device used to transfer heat between two or more fluids.

Similarities between Boiler (power generation) and Heat exchanger

Boiler (power generation) and Heat exchanger have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Air conditioning, Boiler, Condensation, Condenser (heat transfer), Fouling, Furnace, Gas turbine, Pressurized water reactor, Rankine cycle, Steam, Steam generator (nuclear power), Turbine, Water.

Air conditioning

Air conditioning (often referred to as AC, A/C, or air con) is the process of removing heat and moisture from the interior of an occupied space, to improve the comfort of occupants.

Condensation

Condensation is the change of the physical state of matter from gas phase into liquid phase, and is the reverse of vapourisation.

Condenser (heat transfer)

In systems involving heat transfer, a condenser is a device or unit used to condense a substance from its gaseous to its liquid state, by cooling it.

Pressurized water reactor

Pressurized water reactors (PWRs) constitute the large majority of the world's nuclear power plants (notable exceptions being the United Kingdom, Japan, and Canada) and are one of three types of light water reactor (LWR), the other types being boiling water reactors (BWRs) and supercritical water reactors (SCWRs).

Turbine

A turbine (from the Latin turbo, a vortex, related to the Greek τύρβη, tyrbē, meaning "turbulence") is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into useful work.
