Combustion Efficiency
Combustion efficiency is the effectiveness of the burner only and relates to its ability to completely burn the fuel. The boiler has little bearing on combustion efficiency. A well-designed burner will operate with as little as 15% to 20% excess air, while converting all combustibles in the fuel to thermal energy.
Thermal Efficiency
Thermal efficiency is the effectiveness of the heat transfer in a boiler. It does not take into account boiler radiation and convection losses - for example, from the boiler shell, water column piping, etc.
Fuel-to-Steam Efficiency
In the whole drying process, we should pay attention to gradually increasing the temperature instead of burning by raging fire; regularly checking boiler's water level and keeping it within the normal range; keeping the flame balanced in the furnace. In addition, we also should properly open the drainage valve and maintain the water level, regularly record the flue gas temperature to control the rise of temperature and high temperature and keep the temperature within the normal range. In general, under these conditions, boiler’s drying quality can be ensured.
The coal-fired boiler has always been one of the important boiler types in the industrial production and its operating costs and capacity play an important role in the enterprise operation.
Discharging high-temperature flue gas generated by a biomass-fired boiler efficiently and safely is crucial for boiler operation, environmental compliance, and energy recovery. These gases, if not handled properly, can lead to energy inefficiency and increase the emission of pollutants. ZOZEN Boiler, as a professional industrial boiler manufacturer, incorporates advanced technologies and strategies to manage and utilize high-temperature flue gases from biomass-fired boilers. Here's an overview o...
The thermal efficiency of an industrial boiler is a measure of how effectively the boiler converts the energy contained in the fuel into usable heat. It is typically expressed as a percentage, indicating the ratio of heat output for heating or producing steam to the energy input from the fuel consumed. This efficiency is crucial for understanding the performance of a boiler, as it directly impacts fuel consumption, operational costs, and environmental emissions.
