Locomotive-type boiler explosions. Boiler explosions are of a particular danger in (locomotive-type) fire tube boilers because the top of the firebox (crown sheet) must be covered with some amount of water at all times; or the heat of the fire can weaken the crown sheet or crown stays to the point of failure, even at normal working pressure.

Read MoreA high pressure watertube boiler (also spelled water-tube and water tube) is a type of boiler in which water circulates in tubes heated externally by the fire. Fuel is burned inside the furnace, creating hot gas which boils water in the steam-generating tubes.In smaller boilers, additional generating tubes are separate in the furnace, while larger utility boilers rely on the water-filled tubes

Read MoreBoilers rely on the water to protect the steel boiler tubes from the temperatures in the furnace which greatly exceed the melting point of the tube material. A buildup of deposits inside the tubes will produce an insulating layer which inhibits the ability of the water to remove the heat from the tube.
Read MoreThe coal or wood was fed to the fire through the fire hole. Later locomotives used oil or coal fed through augers to feed the fire. Flues and heating pipes lead from the fire box at the back of the boiler to the smoke box at the front of the boiler. The heat of the air and smoke caused the water to boil and make steam. The steam was fed by the

Read MoreA boiler explosion is a catastrophic failure of a boiler.There are two types of boiler explosions. One type is a failure of the pressure parts of the steam and water sides. There can be many different causes, such as failure of the safety valve, corrosion of critical parts of the boiler, or low water level. Corrosion along the edges of lap joints was a common cause of early boiler explosions.
