Lancashire boiler is a fire tube boiler.
Fire tube boilers are internally fired.
Babcock and Wilcox boiler is a water tube boiler.
All of the above
The ratio of heat actually used in producing the steam to the heat liberated in the furnace
The amount of water evaporated or steam produced in kg per kg of fuel burnt
The amount of water evaporated from and at 100°C into dry and saturated steam

To provide an adequate supply of air for the fuel combustion
To exhaust the gases of combustion from the combustion chamber
To discharge the gases of combustion to the atmosphere through the chimney
All of the above
Control the flow of steam from the boiler to the main pipe and to shut off the steam completely when required
Empty the boiler when required and to discharge the mud, scale or sediments which are accumulated at the bottom of the boiler
Put off fire in the furnace of the boiler when the level of water in the boiler falls to an unsafe limit

All of these
Frictional losses
It is not possible to achieve 0°K temperature
Leakage
Non availability of ideal substance
Inherent moisture and surface moisture are different things
In some coals moisture may be present up to 40%
Some moisture in coal helps in better burning which is not possible with completely dry coal
It increases thermal efficiency
All the fuel burns instantaneously producing high energy release
Fuel burns with less air
Coal bursts into flame without any external ignition source but by itself due to gradual increase in temperature as a result of heat released by combination of oxygen with coal

The cost of the engine, for the same power and economy, is more than that of a simple steam engine.
The forces in the working parts are increased as the forces are distributed over more parts.
The ratio of expansion is reduced, thus reducing the length of stroke.
The temperature range per cylinder is increased, with corresponding increase in condensation.
