To guarantee the successful and efficient shell boiler operation, the user must:
1)Know the conditions, environment, and demand characteristics of the plant, and accurately specify these conditions to the boiler manufacturer.
2)Provide a boiler house layout and installation that promotes good operation and maintenance.
3)Select the control systems that allow the boiler to operate safely and efficiently.
4)Select the control systems that will support the boiler in supplying dry steam to the plant at the required pressure(s) and flowrate(s).
5)Identify the fuel to be used and, if necessary, where and how the fuel reserve is to be safely stored.
Shell boilers may be defined as those boilers in which the heat transfer surfaces are all contained within a steel shell. Shell boilers may also be referred to as "fire tube" or "smoke tube" boilers because the products of combustion pass through the boiler tubes, which in turn transfer heat to the surrounding boiler water.
1) The entire plant may be purchased as a complete package, only needing securing to basic foundations, and connecting to water, electricity, fuel and steam systems before commissioning. This means that installation costs are minimised.
2) This package arrangement also means that it is simple to relocate a packaged shell boiler.
3) A shell boiler contains a substantial amount of water at saturation temperature, and hence has a substantial amount of stored energy which can be called upon to cope with short term, rapidly applied loads.
*This can also be a disadvantage in that when the energy in the stored water is used, it may take some time before the reserve is built up again.
4)The construction of a shell boiler is generally straight forward, which means that maintenance is simple.
5)Shell boilers often have one furnace tube and burner. This means that control systems are fairly simple.
Although shell boilers may be designed and built to operate up to 27 bar, the majority operat
1. If the stop valve of the oil circuit is closed or the feeding of oil is insufficient and the oil filter is blocked, it is necessary to check that the valve in the oil circuit is open, the oil filter works normally and clean the filter screen of the pump.
2. If the oil temperature is low, viscosity is too high or the temperature of the oil fed by pump is too high, the oil temperature needs to be increased or decreased.
3. If the the domestic sewage treatment equipment oil pump breaks down, the oil pump is required to be replaced.
4. If the bearing of fan motor is damaged, it is necessary to replace the motor or bearing.
5. If the fan impeller is too dirty, it is required to be cleaned.
Loads vary, and a power plant must be capable of handling the minimum load, the maximum load, and any load variations. Boiler selection is often dictated by the variation in load demand, rather than by the total quantity of steam or hot water required. There are three basic types of load variations: seasonal, daily, and instantaneous.
The number of passes that the flue gas travels before exiting the boiler has been a good criterion when comparing boilers. As the flue gas travels through the boiler it cools, and therefore changes volume. Multiple pass boilers increase efficiency because the passes are designed to maximize flue gas velocities as the flue gas cools. ZOZEN has developed new design technologies in our WNS series boilers allowing for comparable efficiencies in fewer passes, resulting in smaller boiler systems that will fit in tighter quarters.
