1) Set up the air preheater. One of the most effective measures to improve the thermal efficiency of thermal oil heater is to use an air preheater for heat recovery. 2) Use waste heat boiler for heat recovery. The waste heat boiler uses the waste heat in the flue gas exhausted from the thermal oil heater to heat water or generate steam.
Coal is one of the main fuels used by boilers, especially the coal-fired boiler. In order to reduce the production costs, we need to know whether the coal-fired boiler saves coal in operation.
When regulating and controlling the coal-fired steam boiler, it will involve the banking-up operation which has a set of operating steps and points for attention. Strictly adhering to the operating steps will be helpful for the more efficient operation of coal-fired steam boiler and can extend its service life at the same time.
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.
Soot on the heating surfaces. Even a thin layer of soot will reduce the boiler efficiency. Not the right fuel for the burner. For instance, diesel oil to a rotary cup burner wouldn't do. Too low feed water temperature.
There are many opinions on the best way to clean a steam boiler. One of the oldest ways is to dissolve a pound of tri-sodium phosphate (TSP) and a pound of caustic soda (lye) in water and pour it into the boiler. Let it cook for a few hours and then drain the boiler. If you can't buy TSP in your town, try a commercial soap called MEX. It works well and will not damage the rubber gaskets found in some boilers. However, before you clean any boiler, check the manufacturer's instructions for their recommendations.
It could also say, how much heat is required to rais the water temperature from 60 ℃ to 90 ℃.
To calculate heat required follow below steps
Q= mCp dt
Where
m - water flow rate (kg/hr)
Cp- specific heat of water
dt- temperature differences ( 90–60)
You will get heat required in kcal/ hr.
dividing to Q by fuel GCV and system efficiency you will come to know how much fuel (either it is coal or oil) required to raise the temperature of water from 60 ℃ to 90℃.
