Explained simply: Producing steam in a saucepan
A steam boiler produces steam – but how? The function can be explained very simply by means of a saucepan: with the lid sealed airtight, the steam produced can not escape. The pressure in the pan rises and this leads to an increased boiling temperature. What happens then? You can find out in our video.
