What are the main reasons for the increase in exhaust gas temperature of gas-fired boiler?

16 Jul 2021
  1. Ash accumulation on the heating surface.

The scaling and ash deposition on the water-cooled wall of the furnace and the ash deposition of the superheater, convention tube bundles, economizer and preheater can increase the thermal resistance of the flue gas, weaken the heat transfer, lessen the cooling effect of the flue gas and increase the exhaust gas temperature of the gas-fired boiler.

 

  1. Too high excess air coefficient.

Under normal circumstances, as the furnace outlet excess air coefficient increases, the exhaust gas temperature of the gas-fired boiler rises.

 

  1. Too high air leakage coefficient.

The air leakage refers to the air leakage in the furnace and flue gas duct, which is one of the main reasons why the boiler exhaust gas temperature rises. This factor is inevitable. Therefore, the allowable air leakage coefficient for a certain heating surface is specified. When the air leakage coefficient increases, the exhaust gas temperature of the gas-fired boiler rises.

 

  1. High feed water temperature.

The heat transfer temperature difference between the flue gas temperature and the water temperature is small, which correspondingly increases the exhaust gas temperature of the gas-fired boiler.
