A boiler economizer (also known as an economizer) are mechanical devices intended to reduce energy consumption or perform a useful function such as preheating a fluid. A boiler economizer is essentially a heat exchanger that makes a system more energy efficient by taking enthalpy in fluid streams that are hot, but not hot enough to be used in a boiler – hence recovering more useful enthalpy and improving the steam boiler’s efficiency.
If the following three conditions occur during the burning and flame out process of a gas-fired boiler, the furnace is likely to blow up.
1.The residual gas content in the furnace reaches the ignition limit at the start-up phase of the furnace.
2.The fuel content in the furnace reaches the ignition limit after several times failure of ignition.
3.The fuel is sprayed out because of the halfway extinction of the flame. And, the temperature of the furnace can not meet the spontaneous combustion condition of the sprayed fuel. However, the content of the sprayed fuel reaches the ignition limit.
