Answer / raja.k
The vent valve kept open while start up boiler is called
start up vent valve.
This valve is usefull to vent low temperature & pressure
moisturised steam. as well sa to raise steam pressure
slowly.

Answer / k.v.chandra mouli
Boiler start-up period can be a difficult period for a super heater particularly while the boiler water temperature is being raised from cold to the normal atmospheric boiling temperature (100oC). During this boiler start-up period, there is no steam available to pass through the super heater tubes and so to carry away the heat transferred from the flue gases. Therefore, the rate of heat input to the boiler should be carefully controlled to avoid tubes overheating.
So, in all super heaters attached to the boilers, there must be a provision to save the tubes from overheating while steam is raised, especially when the delivery of steam from the boiler is suspended, these tubes should be saved from overheating.
To save the tubes from overheating, the super heater may be flooded with water from the boiler. The startup vent valve is kept open while start up boiler and this valve is useful, to vent out low temperature & pressure moisturised steam as well as to raise steam pressure slowly.

Answer / anandhan shanmugam
For starting time 25% valve open. After tg synchronisation the start-up vent close....
If any critical in boiler low temperature maintenance to open start up vent and increase the boiler outlet temperature.
Startup vent was- Airfail to close valve due to boiler safety purposes
