It is inevitable for gas-fired boilers to produce noise including heat exchange noise, aerodynamic noise, mechanical running noise and other noise after ignition.
There are many applications of hot water boilers. With the environmental protection requirements become stricter, the hot water boilers are mostly gas-fired. Therefore, it is important to know how to use the gas-fired hot water boilers safely and what are the maintenance methods.
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.
In the adjustment of boiler operation, on the basis of ensuring safe operation, economic operation must also be achieved to improve boiler efficiency. In general boiler units, the efficiency can basically reach more than 92%, and the total loss is less than 8%. The loss is: exhaust heat loss, generally 5-6%, followed by mechanical incomplete combustion heat loss is less than 1-1.5 %, heat loss and ash slag physical heat loss are about 1%. (Physical heat loss for high ash coal ash residue will be greater).
From the point of view of quantification of indicators, the key to improving boiler efficiency is to reduce smoke loss and heat loss due to incomplete combustion of machinery. Pay attention to the flue gas temperature changes. Excessive flue gas temperature will affect the efficiency of the boiler. Too low temperature may cause low-temperature corrosion of the air preheater. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the adjustment according to the load changes during operation. When t
Industrial boilers will produce wastes that needs to be treated during the use process, which is what we mentioned of boiler blowdown. What are the methods for boiler blowdown?
1. Regular blowdown
1) The time interval and quantity of discharge depend on the test results of boiler water. It usually do not exceed 5% of the water supply.
2) When the regular blowdown is being made under high load of the boiler, the blowdown of the water-cooled wall header is generally not required to avoid affecting the normal water circulation of the water-cooled wall and forming a tube explosion incident.
2. Continuous blowdown
The amount of blowdown shall be determined according to the test results of the boiler water, and shall be completed by adjusting the needle-shaped angle of the blowdown tube.
The explosion-proof door of the gas-fired boiler is opened or broken when the combustible gas explosion suddenly increases the pressure, it then releases high-pressure gas to reduce the damage to the gas-fired boiler body and also ensure
The function of the gas-fired boiler explosion-proof door is usually reflected when the gas-fired boiler is ignited or running due to improper operation. For instance, the furnace is not purged before ignition, the furnace is still not purged even the ignition cannot successfully be lit, the nozzle is leaking, the fuel is not completely burned, and extinguished failure to cut off fuel quickly, etc. all of them may cause the furnace and tail flue to explode. Installing explosion-proof door for gas-fired boiler is to release the pressure to avoid the accident from expanding and also to ensure the safety of the industrial steam boiler when a slight explosion occurs in the furnace or flue.
Missing insulation reduces the system’s efficiency. Insulation helps hold heat in the system, and when the heat can dissipate, more fuel is needed to maintain proper temperature and pressure.
Since missing insulation may not be visible, the best way to detect it is with a thermal imager. If you don’t have a thermal imager as a part of your building’s operations, a plumber or other professional likely will carry one. If your energy costs have increased without a rise in the amount you use the boiler, suspect missing insulation and call to have the system inspected with a thermal imager.
