Compared with the price of a traditional coal-fired boiler, the operation cost of a gas-fired boiler is relatively high. So, users need to consider the price and quality before purchasing a boiler. For a gas-fired boiler, the energy-saving performance is more important than the boiler price. One year is enough for a gas-fired boiler with good energy-saving performance to save the extra costs of the boiler proper. And, the gas consumption is an important indicator to measure the energy-saving performance of a boiler.
Package boiler is a boiler that had been fabricated and available as a complete package. The entire pressure parts have been assembled in the workshop and ready to be sent to the field or site where power plant is located. On the field/site requires only connection and integration of course work in electrical connections, water pipes, steam pipes and fuel piping system to operate. Package boiler is one of classification of boiler based on erection. Design package boilers in general are the type of Fire Tube Boiler and have made up shell and tubes. This type has high heat transfer both radiation and convection.
Today's businesses, regardless of industry, can always do more to improve their sustainability and limit the negative impact their actions have on the environment. There are a number of ways to do this, but one of the best is to use a boiler that's designed to limit the emissions of NOx — one of the most harmful greenhouse gases humans emit into the atmosphere. Aside from being good for the environment, a low NOx boiler can also be good for business.
The boiler gas consumption calculation need the following parameters: gas calorific value and boiler thermal efficiency.
Theoretically, the gas consumption of boiler = boiler thermal capacity ÷ (calorific value of gas x boiler thermal efficiency )
Take the 1 tph steam boiler as an example:
= 600,000 cal / (8500Kcal * 0.98) =72m3/h, the 1 tph boiler's gas consumption per hour is about 72 cubic meters.
