Once the flameout of gas-fired or oil-fired boiler is confirmed, the boiler should be shut down for inspection and maintenance in time according to the operating regulations. Only after the inspection and test are completed, the boiler can continue to be used.
From the perspective of atomization mode, there are three kinds of burner used by boiler that are rotating cup atomization burner, pressure atomization burner and medium atomization burner.
In general, gas-fired boiler uses natural gas to heat water in order to provide heat source for underfloor heating and heating radiator, while condensing gas-fired uses condensation technology to recycle the thermal energy from the exhaust gas.
With the industrial innovation and the advance of science and technology, steam engine is replaced by gas-fired boiler that is a kind of more energy-saving heat production machine. There are three main usages of gas-fired boiler that we need to know in order to better understand the benefits that gas-fired boiler brings to us.
1. During the start-up process of the burner, if the burner repeatedly alarms and locks, it should be found out the reason, find the fault and eliminate it, and then press the reset button to inherit the start. Note: The continuous press of the reset button should not exceed 10 seconds
2. If the burner is not successful in one combustion, the natural gas boiler induced draft fan should be restarted, and the second combustion can be started after 5 minutes of ventilation.
3. In the normal operation era, the burner close to the thermal equipment department (such as the connecting flange, etc.) will be very hot, to prevent the formation of burns. Do not place flammable materials in the vicinity to avoid causing fire.
4. During the operation of natural gas-fired boilers, it is necessary to closely supervise the working conditions of hot water circulation pumps and natural gas-fired boiler pressures, natural gas distribution bags, pipeline valves, pressure gauges, flow meters, and water
The fuel of a gas-fired boiler is gas such as natural gas, city gas, biogas and liquefied gas, etc. What kind of fuel the boiler burns is decided by an equipment called a burner. The boiler equipped with a gas-fired burner is called a gas-fired boiler. There are three methods of gas-fired boiler combustion as per technical characteristics of how the gas and air mix.
1. Diffusion combustion:
Gas and air mutually diffuse at the gas nozzle and are burning. The advantages are burning stably and with simple burner structure. However, the heated area is easy to be carbonized due to long flame, which is easy to produce incomplete combustion.
2. Premixed combustion:
A part of air and gas are premixed before combustion (coefficient of primary air surplus is between 0.2-0.8), and then being burned. The advantages are clear combustion flame, enhanced combustion, and high thermal efficiency.
The condensing boiler burns carbon-based fuel with oxygen in order to produce steam and carbon dioxide. The gases that escape this process (through a chimney) as exhaust are called flue gases. The major advantage is that they offer up to a 90% improvement in terms of efficiency when compared to standard gas boilers. Overall, condensing boilers are considered much more efficient in contrast to non-condensing gas boilers, a major consideration for any business running on a budget.
