How to Calculate Boiler Efficiency

2016-09-27 15:45:04

To some extend, boiler efficiency directly affects its cost and factory’s productive efficiency, therefore, customers are always looking for a higher efficiency boiler and boiler makers are trying their best to improve boilers’ efficiency to better meet market’s demands. Somehow a boiler’s actual efficiency depends its brand, burner, auxiliaries, installation, operator, fuel, etc.

There are two method to measure the boiler efficiency, that is, direct method and indirect method.

Direct method -direct method of boiler efficiency test is more usable or more common

boiler efficiency =Q*(Hg-Hf)/q*GCV *100 Q =Total steam flow Hg= Enthalpy of saturated steam in k cal/kg Hf =Enthalpy of feed water in kcal/kg q= quantity of fuel use in kg/hr GCV =gross calorific value in Kcal/kg like pet coke (8200 KCAL/KG)

indirect method -to measure the boiler efficiency in indirect method we need a following parameter like 1)Ultimate analysis of fuel (H2,S2,S,C moisture constraint,ash constraint); 2)percentage of O2 or CO2 at flue gas; 3)flue gas temperature at outlet; 4)ambient temperature in deg c and humidity of air in kg/kg; 5)GCV of flue in Kcal/kg 6)ash percentage in combustible fuel 7)GCV of ash in Kcal/kg.
