                The rate of flow is less but get high-quality steam comparing to water tube since most case water tube produces wet steam or saturated steam whereas fire tube boilers are used to produce dry superheated steam. Water tube boiler is mainly used in the field of processing and pharmaceuticals primarily to produce distilled water.
