difference between pipe and tube

Answer Posted / magesh

If there is a heat transfer takes place, it is called as
tube. Normally in Boilers, we call as waterwall tubes which
are sorrounded in the furnace. Where as the Steam and Feed
Pipings we call them as Pipe, because there is no heat
transfer. It just carries steam to Turbine and water to
Boiler respectively.
