When the oil temperature rises to a certain temperature that the oil and gas molecules on the surface of the oil tend to saturate, can catch fire and maintain continuous combustion for a duration of not less than 5S. The temperature is called ignition point.
Fuel freezing point is the temperature at which the fuel loses fluidity. It is an important index that indicates the fuel flows at low temperatures. It often refers to the maximum temperature at which the oil surface remains stationary within 1 minute. The higher the fuel freezing point, the lower the low-temperature fluidity. When the oil temperature is below the freezing point, it cannot be transported in the pipeline.
Four factors are related to the failure of the draft fan of the biomass-fired boiler. The factors are electric, electrical motors, dampers and induced draft fans. Therefore, if the draft fan breaks down, you can check the electric and electrical motor first, then you can check the damper and the induced fan.
Biomass-fired boilers need to be shut down for maintenance. Proper maintenance can reduce the damage to the boiler caused by continuous work. Firstly, it is necessary to cut off all power to prevent being struck by lightning. In addition, dust, limescale and carbon deposits should be cleaned up to prevent rust and corrosion of the boiler.
The selection of a burner of the gas-fired thermal oil heater should be determined according to the boiler proper structure and fuel characteristics and in combination with the actual conditions and requirements. In addition, this kind of boiler can adopt a waste heat recovery device to improve thermal efficiency and reduce heat energy loss.
Maintenance of the burner: thoroughly clean the rotor plate, ignition device, filter, oil pump, motor and impeller system, and add lubricant to the connecting rod device of air valve. Retest the combustion condition.
Compared with the price of a traditional coal-fired boiler, the operation cost of a gas-fired boiler is relatively high. So, users need to consider the price and quality before purchasing a boiler. For a gas-fired boiler, the energy-saving performance is more important than the boiler price. One year is enough for a gas-fired boiler with good energy-saving performance to save the extra costs of the boiler proper. And, the gas consumption is an important indicator to measure the energy-saving performance of a boiler.
Although biomass-fired boilers are environment-friendly boiler products, there are also some situations that biomass-fired boilers can’t be used. Main reasons as follows:
Fuel restrictions: The fuels that contain synthetic compounds can’t be used as the fuel of a biomass-fired boiler, such as waste wood furniture, waste paper, production and domestic waste.
