Diesel Fired Steam Boiler Consumption

At present, the fuel consumption of diesel fired steam boilers is one of the concerns of many oil-fired boiler customers, because as a clean energy boiler, light diesel oil is the most widely used oil fuel for fuel-fired steam boilers. Although the emerging methanol fuel is also very environmentally friendly, there are more applications based on diesel, so more customers are optimistic about diesel. In addition, the price of light diesel is indeed cheaper than methanol fuel, and will eventually greatly reduce the operating cost of oil boilers . So How much fuel does the diesel steam boiler require per ton of steam?

Formula for calculating oil consumption of diesel-fired steam boilers: fuel consumption per hour of oil fired steam boiler = 3600* thermal power / diesel calorific value / boiler efficiency. If it is burning diesel, the fuel consumption per hour is about 132kg. 1 ton diesel steam boiler produces 1 ton steam per hour, so the fuel consumption of a 1 ton diesel boiler is about 70 liters. However, the calculation of how much fuel is consumed per hour for a 2 ton diesel steam boiler is not simply a result of 140 liters, but it is determined by the specific use of the boiler and the thermal efficiency of the design. In general, the higher the design thermal efficiency, the lower the boiler fuel consumption.
