In general, gas-fired boiler uses natural gas to heat water in order to provide heat source for underfloor heating and heating radiator, while condensing gas-fired uses condensation technology to recycle the thermal energy from the exhaust gas.
With the industrial innovation and the advance of science and technology, steam engine is replaced by gas-fired boiler that is a kind of more energy-saving heat production machine. There are three main usages of gas-fired boiler that we need to know in order to better understand the benefits that gas-fired boiler brings to us.
1. During the start-up process of the burner, if the burner repeatedly alarms and locks, it should be found out the reason, find the fault and eliminate it, and then press the reset button to inherit the start. Note: The continuous press of the reset button should not exceed 10 seconds
2. If the burner is not successful in one combustion, the natural gas boiler induced draft fan should be restarted, and the second combustion can be started after 5 minutes of ventilation.
3. In the normal operation era, the burner close to the thermal equipment department (such as the connecting flange, etc.) will be very hot, to prevent the formation of burns. Do not place flammable materials in the vicinity to avoid causing fire.
4. During the operation of natural gas-fired boilers, it is necessary to closely supervise the working conditions of hot water circulation pumps and natural gas-fired boiler pressures, natural gas distribution bags, pipeline valves, pressure gauges, flow meters, and water
There are many opinions on the best way to clean a steam boiler. One of the oldest ways is to dissolve a pound of tri-sodium phosphate (TSP) and a pound of caustic soda (lye) in water and pour it into the boiler. Let it cook for a few hours and then drain the boiler. If you can't buy TSP in your town, try a commercial soap called MEX. It works well and will not damage the rubber gaskets found in some boilers. However, before you clean any boiler, check the manufacturer's instructions for their recommendations.
For same energy output when energy input is lesser efficiency increase. When maximum heat energy is generated from coal or losses in heat transfer are reduced efficiency increase. Coal in boulder size is burnt combustion may not be complete. There will be more unburnt coal. As per coal chemistry and as per boiler flue gas velocity as designed best coal size for full combustion is designed. Maximum crushed coal is also not the best. Then there will be more coal dust. According to general design in various technologies pulverized coal give best combustion for fbc boilers. For cfbc boilers generally crushed coal size is 6 mm.
When you achieve best combustion mean this is main contributor for increase in efficiency. Boiler design, heat transfer, flue gas velocity, heat losses, are other factors for efficiency.
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.
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.
The inlet gas pressure is different for different capacity boiler, for example, the pressure for 2 ton steam capacity boiler is about 8~10KPa, while for 4 ton steam capacity boiler is about 12~25KPa. You can tell us the boiler capacity you want, we will help you to get the gas inlet pressure.
