Regular inspections can identify and correct faults in the safety systems that are designed to prevent accidents.
When it comes to regular maintenance, the cost of the inspections and repairs will be dramatically lower than the loss of time and profit from a broken boiler that requires replacing. Don’t let maintenance fall by the wayside. Schedule it at even intervals throughout the year.
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.
The coal-fired boiler refers to the boiler uses various types of coal as fuel and converts the heat of coal to steam or hot water.
There are generally two calculation methods of the circulating water volume of a coal-fired hot water boiler. One is to calculate the hourly water volume of one square meter and the other is to calculate the design parameter volume of every ton. As for the make-up water volume of this type of boiler, it is usually calculated as 1% to 3% of its total circulating water.
Stack temperature is the temperature of the combustion gases (dry and water vapor) leaving the boiler. A well-designed boiler removes as much heat as possible from the combustion gases. Thus, lower stack temperature represents more effective heat transfer and lower heat loss up the stack. The stack temperature reflects the energy that did not transfer from the fuel to steam or hot water. Stack temperature is a visible indicator of boiler efficiency. Any time efficiency is guaranteed, predicted stack temperatures should be verified.
Stack loss is a measure of the amount of heat carried away by dry flue gases (unused heat) and the moisture loss (product of combustion), based on the fuel analysis of the specific fuel being used, moisture in the combustion air, etc.
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.
The primary objective of an industrial boiler is the generation of steam. Steam is generated by heat transfer at a constant pressure. The fluid, which is initially in a liquid state, is heated, produces a variation in its phase and becomes saturated vapour.
This saturated steam can then be used for different applications such as sterilization, fluid heating or electricity generation.
The air in the economizer and condenser has not drained yet when firing. The safety valves of economizer and condenser need to be turned on to exhaust steam. Return pipe valves also need to be turned on, enabling the steam in the economizer and condenser to return to softened water tank.
The outlet water temperature is so high that economizer and condenser will have vaporization phenomenon. The outlet water temperature of economizer and condenser need to be controlled.
The check valve of the...
(Details on the problem) Specific Performance:Slagging pipe blocks during operation of circulating fluidized bed boiler. Answer：cause of failure:(1) The internal shape is caused by the limited expansion of the wear-resistant material inside the slag discharge pipe. The internal components of the slag cooler are deformed, affecting the fluidization of the slag cooler; the slag cooler is deactivated for a long time or a single slag cooler is selected for slagging, and the bed material in the deactivated slag cooler is bonded under the influence of steam, which being low temperature coke.(2) The operating personnel did not grasp the ratio of the fluidized air volume of the slag cooler. Inappropriate air volume ratio resulted in poor ash slag fluidization in the slag cooler. Troubleshooting:(1) Operation personnel should strengthen understanding of boiler operating conditions, adjust boiler parameters in a timely manner, set up the concept of boiler material dynamic balance, control boiler
