Boilers are often distinguished by fuels that power them. The kind of fuel makes an essential difference in operating costs and environmental impact, so it’s important to learn about the various types of boiler fuel.
Coal, is a common boiler fuel. It dominates the global energy arena due to its abundance, affordability and wide distribution across the world. The most commonly used coal fuels include anthracite, bituminous coal, sub-bituminous coal, lignite and peat.
Many situations require one or more back-up boilers, especially those involving residential accommodation. A properly designed and installed biomass boiler will be as reliable as a fossil fuelled boiler, and in this respect the usual rules for specifying back-up boilers should be applied. However, as a biomass boiler is rarely sized to meet the peak load, the back-up boiler usually acts as a peak-topping boiler as well. Hence, it is usual for back-up boilers to be sized to meet the peak load.
1. Hydraulic should be carried out at a defined pressure before the start of a boiler.2. Check if the pump inlets are open at the start of a boiler.3. Install an automatic ash removal system such as rotary valves in a boiler so as to prevent the accumulation of ash in a furnace or other equipment. The accumulation may result in the blockage or excessive heating of boiler parts resulting in its failure.4. Pump priming must be done at the start of the boiler.5. All loose and wrong connections must...
The air in the economizer and condenser has not drained yet when firing. The safety valves of economizer and condenser need to be turned on to exhaust steam. Return pipe valves also need to be turned on, enabling the steam in the economizer and condenser to return to softened water tank.
The outlet water temperature is so high that economizer and condenser will have vaporization phenomenon. The outlet water temperature of economizer and condenser need to be controlled.
The check valve of the...
(Question details) Specific performance:Tube explosion and bulge of thermal fluid heater.Answer: Cause of failure:(1) Over temperature.(2) Over heating.(3) Hot oil metamorphism. Troubleshooting:(1) Emergency shutdown.(2) Oil discharge and fire extinguish.We use automatic control for operating, burning, high level tank level, outlet temperature and flowrate are all automatically regulated and protected to avoid overtemperature or overheating.
