1.Flamelifting caused by a sudden increase of gas pressure;
2.Gas supply disruptions caused by malfunction of solenoid valve;
3.Great gas constituent change and excessive moisture content.
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.
The term “boiler efficiency” is often substituted for thermal efficiency or fuel-to-steam efficiency. When the term “boiler efficiency” is used, it is important to know which type of efficiency is being represented. Why? Because thermal efficiency, which does not account for radiation and convection losses, is not an indication of the true boiler efficiency. Fuelto-steam efficiency, which does account for radiation and convection losses, is a true indication of overall boiler efficiency. The term “boiler efficiency” should be defined by the boiler manufacturer before it is used in any economic evaluation.
Economizer is one of steam boiler’s equipment which is used to heat feedwater before it is supplied into steam drum. Economizer is the heat exchanger equipment to increase boiler efficiency by absorbing heat recovery of flue gases. The lower temperature of flue gas out from stack, the heat loss will be less and the fuel which is needed to convert water into steam will be also less in certain circumstances. So it can be said that economizer can save the fuel efficiently. Economizer will make temperature of feedwater higher, so steam boiler can produce steam easily.
Gas fired boiler is a boiler which uses gas as its fuel. Gas fired boiler consists of some important components such as flame ignition, gas metering system, air compressor, air piping, gas piping, burner nozzles, and the others. Combustion process of gas fired boiler should be maintained and operated properly to produce efficient combustion result.
Evaporation phase occurs in water wall tubes. Evaporation is the process to convert water into steam. Therefore water wall tubes should be designed and constructed to provide high heat absorption, minimum excess air level and highest boiler efficiency. Construction of water wall tubes should be also constructed to prevent air leakage into steam boiler, eliminate amount of heat losses and permit high heat release and combustion rate in the furnace.
Construction of water wall tubes must provide high quality of the supporting component such as tubes, casing, refractory, lagging, tile, fin, and so on. Best construction will reduce heat loss and maintenance. Construction of water wall tubes can be classified into four types such as:
Boiler controls provide an extra level of safety and reassurance: they allow you to understand your boiler's daily operations better, as well as perform the crucial duty of ensuring that your boiler is operating safely and efficiently. Regardless of what kind of industrial or commercial operation you run, here are some must-have boiler controls to get the most out of your equipment.
Here are some common issues that could cause your industrial boiler to misbehave.
1. Burner Not Functioning Correctly.
If the boiler burner fails or is faulty, then your boiler is not going to be able to generate heat efficiently, or in the worst case not at all . As industrial boilers are in almost constant use they are built to be very robust and last for decades, nevertheless they can still have problems with broken burners from time to time. Burner pumps, heads and nozzles can all cause problems but a swift replacement should limit your down time.
