A steam generator is a form of low water-content boiler, similar to a flash steam boiler. The
usual construction is as a spiral coil of water-tube, arranged as a single, or monotube, coil.
The narrow-tube construction, without any large-diameter drums or tanks, means that they are
safe from the effects of explosion,[note 1] even if worked at high pressures.[2] The pump flowrate
is adjustable, according to the quantity of steam required at that time. The burner output is
throttled to maintain a constant working temperature. The burner output required varies
according to the quantity of water being evaporated: this can be either adjusted by open-loop
control according to the pump throughput, or by a closed-loop control to maintain the
measured temperature.

They are used as auxiliary boilers on ships.[

Powerhouse-where electricity is generated.

By-product(nus-proizvod):
1. Something produced in the making of something else.
2. A secondary result; a side effect.
penstock - regulator consisting of a valve or gate that controls the rate of water flow through
a sluice
Intake- the opening through which fluid enters a duct or channel, esp the air inlet of a jet
engine
Steam generator: a large apparatus for converting hot water into steam at high pressure and often
with supplementary coils to superheat the steam

Condenser
2. an apparatus for condensing, esp. for reducing gases or vapors to liquid or solid form
. (Chemistry) engineering a vessel designed for containing substances, reactions, etc, at pressures
above atmospheric pressure
