Question:

How is the total thermal efficiency of the boiler calculated?

How is the total thermal efficiency of the boiler calculated?

Answer:

The effective use of heat in the boiler for the percentage of the calorific value of the boiler per unit of time, or the percentage of the effective heat in the input calorie per kilogram of fuel (solid and liquid fuel) or per standard cubic meter (gaseous fuel)
Thermal efficiency, is an important technical and economic indicators of the boiler, which indicates the level of boiler equipment and the level of operation and management of the boiler thermal efficiency of the determination and calculation are usually the following two methods:
The method of calculating the thermal efficiency using the ratio of the heat used by the boiler and the total amount of heat that can be released by the fuel is called the positive equilibrium method, also called the direct measurement method. The formula for calculating the positive thermal efficiency can be expressed as follows:
