The document provides technical specifications and performance metrics for a steam drum and boiler. It details the design codes, dimensions, insulation properties, and other specifications for the steam drum. It then analyzes the steam space, efflux velocities, sink times, steam release rates and other parameters, finding some values are outside recommended ranges which could indicate issues with boiler performance and safety. The document compares the boiler's performance to industry standards and guidelines.
