Sample Questions

Question 1
An energy manager reviewing boiler operations notices a gradual increase in stack gas temperature over several months, even though the firing rate and excess air levels have remained consistent. What is the most likely cause of this change?
A decrease in feedwater temperature.
Fouling of heat transfer surfaces inside the boiler.
A malfunctioning steam trap in the distribution system.
An increase in ambient air humidity.
Question 2
What is the primary purpose of continuous (or surface) blowdown in a boiler system?
To remove sludge and sediment from the bottom of the boiler drum.
To test the operation of the low-water cutoff safety device.
To control the concentration of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in the boiler water.
To rapidly lower boiler pressure during an emergency shutdown.
Question 3
An auditor is inspecting a steam distribution system and suspects a particular steam trap has failed in the open position. Which of the following observations would most strongly confirm this suspicion?
The pipe immediately downstream of the trap is cool to the touch.
Water hammer and banging noises are heard in the condensate return line.
A large, continuous plume of live steam is visibly venting from a nearby condensate receiver tank.
The process equipment being served by the trap is not reaching its target temperature.
Question 4
A boiler's flue gas economizer improves overall system efficiency by performing which of the following functions?
Recirculating a portion of the flue gas back into the burner to reduce NOx emissions.
Using hot flue gas to preheat the combustion air before it enters the burner.
Transferring waste heat from the flue gas to the incoming boiler feedwater.
Using a catalyst to promote more complete combustion of fuel.
Question 5
Which of the following is a significant negative consequence of having too much excess air in the boiler combustion process?
Increased production of carbon monoxide (CO) and soot.
A higher risk of furnace explosion due to unburnt fuel.
Decreased boiler efficiency due to excess heat being carried up the stack.
Corrosion of boiler tubes due to flue gas condensation.
