Few parameters critical to health of the Boiler are
(4)Heat rate of the Boiler. This is a composite index of many performance indicators. Most of them will appear below.
(5)Unburnt fuel in flue gas and at boiler bottom .
(6)Flue gas furnace exit temperature.
(7)Boiler tube metal temperatures.
(8)Oxygen in flue gas.
(9)Imbalances in flue gas temperature over a cross section.
(10)Spray water consumption in Super heater and Reheater.
(11)Heat radiation from insulation.
The above all affects the performance of the boiler.
Biomass fuel can be applied to a biomass-fired boiler by treatment and compression molding. Commonly used are straw particles, rice husk particles, wood particles, sawdust particles, peanut rod particles, sugar aldehyde residue particles, palm shell particles and so on.
If the final temperature of feed water doesn’t reach the saturated temperature after being heated by an economizer, (that is, the feed water has not reached the boiling state), we call the economizer as a nonsteaming economizer. Generally, the final temperature is 30-50℃ lower than the saturated temperature.
The selection of a burner of the gas-fired thermal oil heater should be determined according to the boiler proper structure and fuel characteristics and in combination with the actual conditions and requirements. In addition, this kind of boiler can adopt a waste heat recovery device to improve thermal efficiency and reduce heat energy loss.
Coal-fired boilers refer to boilers that use various kinds of coals as fuel and convert the heat value of coals to steam or hot water.
Some specific parameters should be provided to calculate the theoretical coal consumption of a set of 20 tph coal-fired boiler. If the rated steam pressure is 1 MPa, the heat value of coal is 7000 kcal / kg, the boiler inlet water temperature is 20 ° C, and the boiler thermal efficiency is 80%, the daily coal consumption is 50-56 tons.
A steam boiler plant must operate safely, with maximum combustion and heat transfer efficiency. To help achieve this and a long, low-maintenance life, the boiler water can be chemically treated.
The operating objectives for steam boiler plant include:
Safe operation.
Maximum combustion and heat transfer efficiency.
Minimum maintenance.
Long working life.
The quality of the water used to produce the steam in the boiler will have a profound effect on meeting these objectives.
Condensing boilers can achieve up to 98% thermal efficiency, compared to 70%-80% with conventional designs (based on the higher heating value of fuels). Typical models offer efficiencies over 90% when the return water temperature is at 110 ºF or less; the lower the return water temperature, the higher the efficiency gain.
In order to improve the combustion efficiency of the boiler, in a large boiler, the combustion air is not supplied all at once, but is supplied in two times, one is supplied with the fuel that controls the rate of combustion as well as the amount of fuel that can be burned,and the other is directly supplied to the combustion process that that improves combustion efficiency. The primary air rate of the boiler refers to the proportion of the primary air. If the total air volume is 100% and the primary air rate is 70%, the secondary air rate is 30%.
