Boiler is a kind of thermal energy conversion equipment composed of drum and furnace. It uses fuel combustion to heat water into steam or hot water to provide power for production or help auxiliary production. With the continuous improvement of industrial manufacturing technology, boiler's control has also changed from the traditional full manual operation to the present automatic intelligent control.
Selecting a gas-fired boiler for heating a 200,000 m^2 area involves several considerations to ensure efficient, reliable, and cost-effective operation. Here’s a structured approach:
1. Determine Heating Demand
First, calculate the total heating demand of the 200,000 m^2 area. Heating demand varies based on climate, building insulation, usage, and local standards. A rough estimate for moderate climates is 100 W/m^2, but this can vary.
2. Choose Boiler Type
Decide on the boiler type. Fo...
The load control is quite significant in boiler’s operation. Both overloaded and ultra-low loaded operations have negative effects on boiler. Different types of boiler have different rated load ranges, but ultra-low loaded operation’s harm to different types of boiler is similar.

Introduction
The operation of thermal fluid systems, commonly found in various industrial processes, inherently involves several risks due to the high temperatures and potentially hazardous nature of the heat transfer fluids. Ensuring the safety of these systems is paramount not only for the protection of personnel but also for the efficient and uninterrupted operation of the plant. This article outlines key strategies to reduce hazards and enhance safety in thermal fluid systems.

Yes, there is typically a minimum flow requirement for a thermal oil heater, and it's a crucial factor for the safe and efficient operation of the system. Thermal oil heaters, also known as thermal fluid heaters, use a special heat transfer fluid in a closed loop system to transfer heat to a process or heating application. The minimum flow requirement is essential for several reasons:
Preventing Overheating: Ensuring a minimum flow rate is critical to prevent the thermal oil from overheating. I...
Black smoke in gas-fired boilers is typically an indication of incomplete combustion, where the fuel is not being burned efficiently. This can happen due to several reasons:
Poor Air-to-Fuel Ratio: The most common cause of black smoke is an improper balance between the air and fuel. Too much fuel or insufficient air leads to incomplete combustion, resulting in black smoke due to unburnt carbon particles.
Dirty or Clogged Burners: Over time, burners can become dirty or clogged, affecting the ef...
If the burner motor of a gas-fired boiler is not running, several issues could be at play. Diagnosing the problem involves checking various components and systems. Here are some common causes:
Electrical Issues: Check if there's an electrical supply to the motor. A tripped circuit breaker, blown fuse, or loose wiring could interrupt power supply to the motor.
Faulty Motor: The motor itself could be malfunctioning. Over time, motors can wear out or burn out due to electrical issues or mechanica...
