The vertical type and horizontal type are the two main types of boiler. The vertical gas-fired boiler has small volume and is suitable for small workshops or small production enterprises. It is often used in the fields of hot water and heating. The horizontal gas-fired boiler has larger volume with a wider application range than the vertical gas-fired boiler.
Gas-fired hot water boilers require high-quality water to improve the boiler performance and extend the service life. If the boiler uses the tap water of water which contains a lot of impurities, magnesium and calcium ions in the water will form white precipitates when the water is heated at high temperatures, which can cause the scaling problem to reduce the heat transfer efficiency of the boiler and bring hidden dangers of the boiler safety.
The dual-fuel boilers usually burn oil and gas fuel which can be natural gas fuel or artificial gas fuel such as natural gas or diesel. The field-assembled dual-fuel boilers also burn the heavy oil or light oil. This type of boiler can make enterprises select the fuel more flexibly and minimize the boiler operating and production costs for enterprises.
It is inevitable for gas-fired boilers to produce noise including heat exchange noise, aerodynamic noise, mechanical running noise and other noise after ignition.
The fuel of a gas-fired boiler is gas such as natural gas, city gas, biogas and liquefied gas, etc. What kind of fuel the boiler burns is decided by an equipment called a burner. The boiler equipped with a gas-fired burner is called a gas-fired boiler. There are three methods of gas-fired boiler combustion as per technical characteristics of how the gas and air mix.
1. Diffusion combustion:
Gas and air mutually diffuse at the gas nozzle and are burning. The advantages are burning stably and with simple burner structure. However, the heated area is easy to be carbonized due to long flame, which is easy to produce incomplete combustion.
2. Premixed combustion:
A part of air and gas are premixed before combustion (coefficient of primary air surplus is between 0.2-0.8), and then being burned. The advantages are clear combustion flame, enhanced combustion, and high thermal efficiency.
The explosion-proof door of the gas-fired boiler is opened or broken when the combustible gas explosion suddenly increases the pressure, it then releases high-pressure gas to reduce the damage to the gas-fired boiler body and also ensure
The function of the gas-fired boiler explosion-proof door is usually reflected when the gas-fired boiler is ignited or running due to improper operation. For instance, the furnace is not purged before ignition, the furnace is still not purged even the ignition cannot successfully be lit, the nozzle is leaking, the fuel is not completely burned, and extinguished failure to cut off fuel quickly, etc. all of them may cause the furnace and tail flue to explode. Installing explosion-proof door for gas-fired boiler is to release the pressure to avoid the accident from expanding and also to ensure the safety of the industrial steam boiler when a slight explosion occurs in the furnace or flue.
The characteristics of dust collector of coal-fired boiler:
1) Separating the particulate matters. The dust collector of coal-fired boiler can effectively separate the big particulate matters with ignition conditions, so as to reduce the obstruction of dust removal system and improve efficiency.
2) Reducing dust. The dust collector of coal-fired boiler can prevent the dust-contained gas from washing the bag to lower the dust concentration of dust-contained gas and extend the service life of filtering bag and pulse magnetic valve.
3) Adopting materials with high quality. The dust collector of coal-fired boiler adopts high-temperature resistant materials that can extend the service life of dust collector.
4) Adopting elastic piston ring. The mouth of filtering bag adopts elastic piston ring to ensure the leakproofness, which is firm and reliable.
The following conditions will occur when a gas-fired boiler is leaking:
The working pressure of natural gas changes.
There is a strong airflow sound near the source of the leak.
The hand-held alarm makes an abnormal sound.
If the boiler has a serious leakage, the fixed alarm will issue an automatic alarm and the exhaust fan will be opened automatically.
