The heating load of an industrial boiler refers to the amount of energy required to generate a certain amount of heat in a specific period, usually measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs) per hour, kilowatts (kW), or megawatts (MW). Essentially, it's the amount of energy needed to heat the water or generate steam in the boiler for industrial processes or heating purposes.
Understanding the heating load is crucial for several reasons:

What is a large-scale steam boiler? Generally, large-scale steam boilers mainly refer to steam boilers over 75 tons. Large-scale steam boilers can be divided into oil-fired boilers, gas-fired boilers, coal-fired boilers and biomass-fired boilers according to fuel. At present, the number of large-scale steam boilers used in the industry is still relatively large, among which they are used in chemical industry, food industry, industrial and mining enterprises and building materials enterprises.
The boiler drum is connected with downcomer and water wall to form a natural circulation loop. At the same time, the boiler drum receives the feed water from the economizer and delivers saturated steam to the superheater. Therefore, the boiler drum is the connecting hub of the three processes of heating, evaporation and overheating in the boiler.
When it is found that the boiler steam pressure can't rise, the first thing we should do is to check whether the water pump of the gas-fired steam boiler works and how much the pressure of the water pump of the gas-fired steam boiler can reach. When installing the water pump of the gas-fired steam boiler, a pressure gauge is installed on the water pump. This is because, if the gas-fired steam boiler does not add water, it can be detected whether it is caused by the water pump.
Boiler water circulation refers to the circulating flow of water and steam-water mixture on the evaporating heating surface of boiler. What is the working principle of the latest water circulation system of boiler?
There are many challenges and demands faced during the food processing, the choice of a steam boiler can make great difference in a company’s production. So, there are some tips for you to choose a steam boiler for a food processing facility.
Steam boilers use a contained heat system to generate steam. The steam travels through pipes in the building’s walls where they emerge at radiators in heating systems. The radiators warm from the steam’s heat. As the steam gives off its heat, it condenses back to liquid water and returns to the tank. A boiler system of this type that does not allow outside water sources is a closed system and is highly efficient for using all the condensed water. An open network may be required in operations where the steam or water gets contaminated in such a way that it cannot return to the boiler for reuse.
When they reach a certain size, industrial steam boilers are installed in a boiler room which is necessary to ensure safety while they are operating as pressure equipment, in accordance with local regulations.
