A fire tube steam boiler is a boiler where the combustion gases from the burner are channeled through tubes that are surrounded by the fluid to be heated. The boiler body is the pressure vessel and contains the fluid. In most cases, this fluid is water that will circulate for heating purposes or become steam for use in processing.
Each set of tubes through which the combustion gas passes, before making a turn, is considered a "step". Consequently, a three-step boiler will have three sets of pipes with the outlet located at the rear of the boiler.
The primary objective of an industrial boiler is the generation of steam. Steam is generated by heat transfer at a constant pressure. The fluid, which is initially in a liquid state, is heated, produces a variation in its phase and becomes saturated vapour.
This saturated steam can then be used for different applications such as sterilization, fluid heating or electricity generation.
The air in the economizer and condenser has not drained yet when firing. The safety valves of economizer and condenser need to be turned on to exhaust steam. Return pipe valves also need to be turned on, enabling the steam in the economizer and condenser to return to softened water tank.
The outlet water temperature is so high that economizer and condenser will have vaporization phenomenon. The outlet water temperature of economizer and condenser need to be controlled.
The check valve of the...
For the selection of heat fluid boilers, first step is to determine several parameters: thermal power in the process, the oil temperature, and the use of waste heat.There are several methods for determining the boiler's thermal power:1. Calculation. According to the specific heat capacity of the material to be heated, the heating temperature difference, the processing amount per unit time, etc., the thermal power is equal to the product of the above three points, and the calculation result considers a certain margin amount as the boiler capacity.2. The sum of thermal power in the process equipment can also be used as the basis for the heat power.3. Refer to the experience of the same industry to increase or decrease on the basis of peers.4. If steam heating is used, it can be converted into heat transfer oil of the same tonnage and the capacity is appropriately reduced.The determination of the temperature of the heat transfer oil can be determined according to the characteristics of th
1. They are all a heat conversion device. The heat transfer medium they use is different. The water used in the steam boiler is heated to become steam. The heat transfer medium of thermal oil heater is heat medium oil. The heat is transferred to the heated substance by the heat medium oil.2. When a higher heating temperature is required, such as 280 degrees, the steam pressure of the steam boiler should reach 7MPa or more, and the process piping and heat exchange equipment must also withstand the same pressure. The equipment cost is high and dangerous. Thermal oil heater provides a temperature above 280 degrees, but the pressure is lower than 1MPa.3. The temperature of thermal oil heater can be accurately controlled within 3 degrees and the temperature of the steam changes greatly.4. Thermal oil heater is used alone, the exhaust gas temperature is higher, and the thermal efficiency is lower than that of the steam boiler. However, if used in conjunction with a steam boiler, the
