What is the heating area of a 5-ton boiler?
Boiler heating is the main way of central heating in shopping malls, enterprises and residential areas. Many enterprises should consider the heating efficiency and heating area of boilers when choosing and using them, which has a certain relationship with the boiler model and capacity. As a professional hot water boiler manufacturer, ZOZEN Boiler takes the heating area of 5-ton boiler as an example to help users better understand the selection of heating boilers.
Calculate the heating area of a 5-ton boiler.
The heat generated by a 5-ton boiler is 3 million calories, which is 100 calories per square meter of building (residence, office, hotel, etc.) according to the current national standard. So the standard heating area of a 5-ton boiler is 3,000,000 ÷ 100 = 30,000 square meters. As the heating area of the boiler is also affected by factors such as building structure, height, heat preservation, etc., the calculated values of the heating area of the above ten-ton hot water boiler are only used for reference, and the heating area is also affected by the difference between the north and the south. The key is whether the efficiency of the boiler you purchased can reach the marked heat.
Through experience summary, it can be known that the relationship between tonnage and heating area is as follows:
1-ton boiler supply area: 6,000-10,000 square meters;
2-ton boiler supply area: 12,000 m2-16,000 m2;
3-ton boiler supply area: 18,000 m2-24,000 m2;
4-ton boiler supply area: 24,000 m2-32,000 m2.
5-ton boiler supply area: 30,000 m2 to 50,000 m2.
10-ton boiler supply area: 60,000 m2-100,000 m2.
There are many types of 5-ton boilers, and figuring out the heating area of 5-ton boilers is only a part of boiler selection, and the appropriate boiler type is also very important. ZOZEN WNS gas-fired hot water boiler, WNS3.5-0.7/95/70-Y(Q) or WNS5-1.25-Y(Q) is recommended here.
WNS series gas-fired boiler body is designed as a large furnace, with sufficient fuel combustion. With the ultra-low nitrogen burner, NOx ≤ 30mg/nm3 can be easily realized. Adopt corrugated furnace liner and threaded smoke pipe, with large heating area and thermal efficiency as high as over 98%; And it is fully automatic and safe, which can save a lot of running costs. WNS series gas boilers are famous in the domestic heating industry for their high efficiency, low consumption, energy saving and environmental protection.
