Corrugated Furnace Advantages for Fire Tube Shell Boilers
Fire tube gas and oil fired boilers are designed with corrugated furnace, and the most difficult part of fire tube boiler manufacturing process is undoubtedly the construction of the corrugated furnace; this process is also the most expensive, having the greatest impact on the final price of the fire tube boiler but also ensuring the boiler’s long useful life, for the inner hull of wave shape is an important component in small oil and gas boiler, and its quality has immediate influence on good running to the boiler.
Advantages of a Corrugated Furnace in fire tube boilers
The larger the boiler, the larger the furnace diameter necessary to house an efficient flame. Increasing the furnace diameter increases the required thickness of the furnace to withstand the desired pressures. If the boiler does not have any way to absorb the expansions and contractions of the material when the boiler is cycled, the tube sheets will be subjected to very large stresses that shorten the useful life of the boiler. A corrugated furnace absorbs the expansions and contractions of the steel, avoiding ruptures in the tube sheets of the boiler caused by excessive stresses.
What Is The Importance of the Furnace Diameter of the Boiler
The diameter of the furnace plays an important role in the design of the boiler. Because it is the area directly exposed to the flame, it absorbs the most heat and as a result, it is the material with the greatest heat fatigue coefficient. The greater the diameter of the furnace, the lower the heat fatigue coefficient, the less material fatigue, and as a result, the longer the useful life.
Another important factor is the total volume of the furnace, which relates to the flame release coefficient. The greater the diameter, the lower the flame release coefficient, which in turn improves the formation and efficiency of the flame.
All ZG Group’s gas and oil fired boilers are equipped with corrugated furnace in order to provide our clients with quality and efficient boilers.
