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.
It could also say, how much heat is required to rais the water temperature from 60 ℃ to 90 ℃.
To calculate heat required follow below steps
Q= mCp dt
Where
m - water flow rate (kg/hr)
Cp- specific heat of water
dt- temperature differences ( 90–60)
You will get heat required in kcal/ hr.
dividing to Q by fuel GCV and system efficiency you will come to know how much fuel (either it is coal or oil) required to raise the temperature of water from 60 ℃ to 90℃.
If you smell gas, don’t use electrical switches, telephones, or any appliances that may cause sparks.Firstly, you should shut off the gas valve, open the doors and windows to circulate the air. Then you should seek for professional help:
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.
First of all, we should consider the thermal insulation effect. The main function of a gas-fired boiler is to provide heat energy. Good surface packaging material can avoid heat loss and save the fuel. It is suggested to choose glass wool which has a good insulation effect.
Secondly, we should consider the boiler appearance. It is best to choose a white color plate package when buying a gas-fired boiler, which not only has a beautiful appearance but also has a good insulation effect.
Finally, we should consider the boiler size. Wrong boiler size will cause some unnecessary troubles.
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.
In the work of transforming a coal-fired boiler into a gas-fired boiler, the principle of changing the original boiler should be reduced without changing the pressure component of the boiler body. The transformation process should focus on the choice of gas burners, the determination of the number of burners, the layout of the burners, the matching design of the furnace layout, and the selection of explosion-proof measures. Step by step, both economic benefits and practicality should be considered.
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.
