Issues with the processing capacity of gas-fired heat transfer oil furnaces

2017-01-21View Original

Thread Content

Recently, our company has three towers that previously used steam as the heating source; now we want to switch to using a gas-fired heat transfer oil furnace as the heating source. How should we determine the capacity of the heat transfer oil furnace? ?

Calculate the heat load required for the heat transfer oil furnace based on the steam consumption and the latent heat of vaporization of the steam.

If there was originally a maximum steam consumption load, the maximum load of the tower is calculated through heat conversion, to serve as the design heat load for the hot oil furnace. Of course, it is also possible to directly calculate the required heat load based on the production load of the tower, using this value as a basis for designing the hot oil furnace.

It’s very convenient for one’s own company – it’s possible to check the steam consumption, and the software can easily calculate the load

Can I change it just anywhere? It’s still better to ask the design firm to handle it
