What is the equivalent tonnage of a 6 million kcal boiler?

29 Jul 2022

In this question, what is the tonnage of a 6 million kcal boiler? Tonnage and 10,000 kcal are the expressions of boiler heat supply or boiler capacity. However, the relationship between different representations is unclear to many users.

 

Boiler capacity unit

Before the announcement of the equivalent tonnage of 6 million kcal boiler, the common boiler heat supply units in China were summarized:

  1. Kcal/hour (Kcal/h) is a metric unit, which means the heat that the boiler can provide per hour;
  2. Ton/hour (t/h) is a popular term for steam boiler, also known as boiler capacity, boiler thermal power, boiler output, etc. It refers to the amount of steam produced by the boiler at a certain pressure and temperature per hour. When we talk about a 1-ton boiler, we don't mean that the physical weight of the boiler is 1 ton, but that the steam produced by this boiler is 1 ton per hour.
  3. Megawatt (MW) is the international unit, and the basic unit is W, that is, 1MW=106W. In the boiler industry, it is usually used to express the heat output per hour of hot water boilers at a certain pressure and temperature, which is what we often call boiler output. The output heat of 0.7MW hot water boiler per hour is equivalent to 1 steam ton.

Under normal circumstances, the conversion between heat supply units of each boiler: 1 ton =0.7 MW = 600,000 kcal =720KW.
