  • What is the standard gas consumption of 10 tph gas-fired steam boiler? 2020-02-21
    The gas consumption of 10 tph gas-fired boiler is related to technical parameters. Such as heating surface layout, heat preservation effect, heat loss, water capacity, etc. The calculation formula of gas consumption of 10 tph gas-fired boiler is as follows: =10 tph gas-fired boiler output÷ thermal efficiency ÷calorific value of natural gas = 6,000,000 kcal ÷ 0.98 ÷ 8,600 kcal / h = 712 m3 Therefore, the gas consumption of 10 tph gas-fired boiler is 712 m3/ h The gas consumption of the above gas-fired boiler is calculated at full capacity. In practice, the gas consumption changes with the operation load and operation conditions. In addition, if thermal efficiency of the gas-fired boiler is different, the gas consumption is different, too. The higher thermal efficiency is, the lower gas consumption is.
  • Why do you use low heat generation instead of high heat when calculating boiler thermal efficiency? 2019-12-13
    This is because, under normal circumstances, the exhaust temperature of the boiler cannot completely condense the water in the flue gas, and the difference between the low calorific value and the high calorific value is mainly in the part of the latent heat of vaporization, so the low heat is used. The value is calculated to reflect the true efficiency of the boiler. However, there will be some special circumstances. For example, if the boiler is a condensing boiler, the calculation of the condensed water portion should be calculated using the high calorific value.
  • What is the mechanism of economizer? 2019-11-15
    Economizer is one of steam boiler’s equipment which is used to heat feedwater before it is supplied into steam drum. Economizer is the heat exchanger equipment to increase boiler efficiency by absorbing heat recovery of flue gases. The lower temperature of flue gas out from stack, the heat loss will be less and the fuel which is needed to convert water into steam will be also less in certain circumstances. So it can be said that economizer can save the fuel efficiently.  Economizer will make temperature of feedwater higher, so steam boiler can produce steam easily.
  • Saturated Vs superheat steam conditions 2019-10-18
    In a boiler, energy from the fuel is transferred to liquid water in order to create steam. Once the water is heated to boiling point, it is vaporized and turned into saturated steam. When saturated steam is heated above boiling point, dry steam is created and all traces of moisture are erased. This is called superheated steam.
  • What is the construction of an industrial boiler? 2019-10-04
    Industrial boilers are welded from sturdy steel plates that are engineered to withstand intense heat and pressure - as a result of this thick steel, boilers can sometimes weigh as much as 165 tons! The construction of hot water boilers and steam boilers is very similar. They both feature a cylinder tube, otherwise known as the pressure vessel. The pressure vessel contains something called a flame tube, which is fired through a burner and a reversing chamber that feeds flue gases back through a second smoke tube. These flue gases are reversed again via an external reversing chamber. This reversing chamber sends the flue gases to the end of the boiler, in the third smoke tube pass. A major difference between hot water industrial boilers and the steam versions? Hot water boilers, as their name implies, are usually completely filled with hot water during their operation, while steam boilers are filled with water only until the ¾ mark, with the top fourth of the boiler reserved for steam.
  • How to recognize noise signals for your boiler and what to do to prevent potential disasters when the noise occurs? 2019-08-16
    Any unusual noises should always be treated seriously. One of the first things to check if a boiler is unusually noisy is the boiler's thermostat. If the thermostat is malfunctioning, water can become too hot and begin to boil, which could cause loud noises. If the thermostat is broken it may need to be replaced to prevent the water from heating up so much. Another reason for a noisy boiler could be mineral deposits. As the water heats up inside the boiler, minerals may sink to the bottom of the tank and affect the heat exchange. This may create hot spots within the boiler in which water is overheated, leading to loud noises. Low water pressure is also a concern that can result in loud noises. If water pressure is low, the boiler is tend to be overheat.
  • Why do boilers have a minimum flow requirement? 2019-08-01
    Boilers with low water volumes require a minimum flow requirement to prevent localized boiling and subsequent heat exchanger damage in a low to zero water flow situation. Minimum flow requirement varies by boiler design. Regardless if a boiler itself has a minimum flow requirement, every hydronic heating system needs to be designed to carry the energy being created away from the boiler to avoid high temperature shut down.
  • What is the main characteristic of industrial superheated water boilers? 2019-06-14
    In superheated industrial water boilers, the water is pressurized and boiled to 100°C producing steam. These boilers are pyrotubular, with a high volume of water and a large temperature exchange zone. The designs can adapt to temperatures and pressures according to needs.
