How To Calculate Natural Gas Boiler Consumption

Whether it is natural gas boiler consumption, gas consumption of 4 tons biogas boiler, or 14MW natural gas consumption amount of gas boiler, boiler users should calculate the boiler gas consumption. In addition to the fuel itself calorific value and other factors, in fact, it is generally complex to calculate gas boiler consumption, but many customers need the necessary reference when buy all kinds of gas boiler. So, how exactly do we calculate the amount of natural gas used to burn natural gas boilers?

The boiler gas consumption calculation need the following parameters: such as natural gas calorific value 8500kcal/m3, pressure 8-10Kpa, and theoretically, the gas consumption of boiler heat = boiler calorific value÷(Calorific value of natural gas x Boiler thermal efficiency )= 2400 000 Kcal / (8500Kcal * 0.94) =297m3/h, here we take 4 tons of natural gas boilers for example, then the boiler gas consumption per hour need only about 297 cubic meters.

Because of natural gas as a fuel in the heavy oil thermal recovery, power plant power generation from different sources of natural gas due to different components. The calorific value is different.
Therefore, The same boiler uses high calorific value natural gas, which consumes less gas than the lower calorific value gas.
