Analysis of the causes of flame fluctuations in synthesis furnaces

2017-01-16View Original

Thread Content

The system is equipped with 3 steam synthesis furnaces, and during operation emergency shutdowns have occurred on multiple occasions due to severe fluctuations in the flame. The hydrogen, chlorine control valves, shut-off valves, and nitrogen purge valves in the system have been inspected, but the cause has not yet been identified. Seeking help! ! !

Check the accuracy of the flow meter; it’s very likely that unstable flow is causing the issue.

Yeah, the flame is unstable – either there’s not enough chlorine or too much hydrogen. . . Either there’s a problem with the nitrogen. . . But all the data from various aspects show no problems, including valve operation, flow rate, pressure, etc’

What if a flow meter provides false readings? It’s actually fluctuating there – is the flow meter accurate?

It’s probably due to fluctuations in the hydrogen system. Has it been like this throughout your driving, or did it start later?

If the flow meter is fine, this situation is caused by fluctuations in hydrogen flow, or even a temporary absence of hydrogen flow. Check whether there are any issues with the valve used to control hydrogen flow, and also examine the chlorine flow control valve.
