Unfortunately, there's no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. The overall cost of purchasing new equipment and implementing a new system will depend largely on a number of factors that vary for each different customer.
While we can't tell you exactly what you should plan to spend, we can give you some information on what will impact the price of the equipment you purchase.
Read on to find out what factors will influence how much you will spend on thermal fluid heating equipment for your plant.
There are so many options to weigh when looking for high efficiency boilers: hot water or steam, wetback or dryback, type of fuel, and more. However, there are a few key considerations to make when evaluating a new boiler for efficiency that will help you no matter what your other considerations may be. Look for a fan that can deliver a stable air supply, a burner and boiler unit that can produce low emissions, a design that maximizes flue gas velocity, smart pressure vessel design, and an efficient heating power to boiler surface ratio are just a few considerations to keep in mind. These simple but powerful design elements are hallmarks of solid construction and will add up to significant performance enhancements. Our team members are always available for consultation and can make specific recommendations when it comes to models once we know more about your needs.
A fire tube steam boiler is a boiler where the combustion gases from the burner are channeled through tubes that are surrounded by the fluid to be heated. The boiler body is the pressure vessel and contains the fluid. In most cases, this fluid is water that will circulate for heating purposes or become steam for use in processing.
Each set of tubes through which the combustion gas passes, before making a turn, is considered a "step". Consequently, a three-step boiler will have three sets of pipes with the outlet located at the rear of the boiler.
In a water tube steam boiler, unlike a fire tube, water circulates inside the tubes. The heat that is generated and the combustion gases that surround the tubes heat the water that circulates inside them. Many water-tube boilers operate according to the principle of natural water circulation.
The capacity of this type of boiler can be enhanced by increasing the number of tubes in the boiler.
The primary objective of an industrial boiler is the generation of steam. Steam is generated by heat transfer at a constant pressure. The fluid, which is initially in a liquid state, is heated, produces a variation in its phase and becomes saturated vapour.
This saturated steam can then be used for different applications such as sterilization, fluid heating or electricity generation.
A typical system includes the heater, circulation pump, expansion tank, and the user's process. Depending on the temperature requirements and the system design control valves may also be utilized.
1. Primary air fan: after being heated by the air pre-heater, primary air enters into the wind chamber, then into the furnace through wind caps through the air distributor to fluidize particulate materials;2. Secondary air fan: after being heated by the air pre-heater, secondary air enters into the furnace through the secondary air ducts for complete combustion of fuels; the seal air, conveying air and fuel spreading air of the feeding device also adopt secondary air; 3.
