Boiler efficiency is mainly depended on the amount of losses in the system. In high capacity pulverized coal fired boilers the total losses account to about 12 to 14%. Roughly 50% of the losses are governed by fuel properties like hydrogen in fuel, moisture in fuel and ambient air conditions. The other 50% losses are carbon loss and dry gas loss. The best efficiency in the boiler can be achieved if the losses are kept to the minimum. Since 50% of the losses are dependent on the fuel and ambient condition, the best efficiency can be achieved by properly tuning the other 50%, i.e. mainly carbon loss and dry gas loss.
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.
The thermal oil heater is a heater that uses heat medium oil as medium for heat transfer. The low-pressure and high-temperature heating can be realized by the utilization of the high-temperature characteristics of heat medium oil.If there is too much moisture in the low-temperature heat medium oil, there will be pressure fluctuations, which will cause some other problems. In addition, if the heat medium oil does not flow in the furnace owing to the stop of pump, the oil temperature will rise and exceed the limit value, which not will greatly affect the service life of the heater and cause the deterioration of the heat medium oil.
Maintenance of the burner: thoroughly clean the rotor plate, ignition device, filter, oil pump, motor and impeller system, and add lubricant to the connecting rod device of air valve. Retest the combustion condition.
Although biomass-fired boilers are environment-friendly boiler products, there are also some situations that biomass-fired boilers can’t be used. Main reasons as follows:
Fuel restrictions: The fuels that contain synthetic compounds can’t be used as the fuel of a biomass-fired boiler, such as waste wood furniture, waste paper, production and domestic waste.
A process load is usually a high-pressure steam load. A process load pertains to manufacturing operations, where heat from steam or hot water is used in the process. A process load is further defined as either continuous or batch. In a continuous load, the demand is fairly constant - such as in a heating load. The batch load is characterized by short-term demands. The batch load is a key issue when selecting equipment, because a batch-type process load can have a very large instantaneous demand that can be several times larger than the rating of the boiler. For example, based on its size, a heating coil can consume a large amount of steam simply to fill and pressurize the coil. When designing a boiler room for a process load with instantaneous demand, a more careful boiler selection process should take place.
1. Your existing system is inefficient
Efficiency is key when it comes to plant heating. Utilizing efficient equipment can save your company a significant amount of money in the long run and it is better for the environment. If you know that your existing system is not as efficient as it could be and it is in need of repair, it may be worth looking into thermal oil system replacement.
2. Your existing system features helical coil technology
Helical coils are common in thermal oil heaters from most manufacturers. But there are many reasons why serpentine coils are the better way to go when it comes to thermal fluid heating. Repairs to helical coils can be so expensive and time consuming that in many cases you are better off investing in new equipment – and it is well worth it to consider a new thermal oil system that features serpentine coil technology instead.
Efficiency is especially important on a large scale and manufacturing and production operations are no exception. Here are two key reasons why you may want to consider upgrading your industrial heating equipment or installing a new, highly efficient thermal fluid heating system in your plant or facility.
