The safety valve of the boiler refers to the valve on the top of the boiler near the boiler control room. The function of the safety valve is to be opened automatically to exhaust the steam and restore the pressure when the boiler pressure exceeds the specified valve, so as to ensure the safety of boiler pressure-bearing components and steam turbines.
According to the power of water or steam circulation, boilers can be divided into natural circulation boilers, forced circulation boilers, once-through boilers and combined circulation boilers.
In the operation of gas-fired steam/hot water boiler, it need continuous water supply to ensure the water volume in the drum. Once water shortage occurs, it will cause the boiler dry burning problem, which will further result in the boiler failure and other problems.
Boiler is a piece of equipment with large energy consumption. Therefore, both boiler manufacturers and purchasers regard energy conservation as an important indicator of boiler performance. The daily energy-saving measures of the natural gas fired boiler are mainly as follows.
The vertical type and horizontal type are the two main types of boiler. The vertical gas-fired boiler has small volume and is suitable for small workshops or small production enterprises. It is often used in the fields of hot water and heating. The horizontal gas-fired boiler has larger volume with a wider application range than the vertical gas-fired boiler.
The high heat transfer of the boiler requires good medium. With the improvement of boiler in the production technology and intelligenlization, gas-fired boilers have more strict requirements for boiler operation medium in order to improve the boiler operating performance, reduce boiler failures and costs.
Due to the development of boiler technology and relevant policies, gas-fired boilers using eco-friendly fuels are often applied for heating. For thermal power companies, cost is the most important issue.
