Last month I met one innovative engineer. He had 6 lakh kcal\/hr oil fired heater. As oil was
costly, he converted it to the solid fired heater; All by himself. He fabricated a furnace
separately and directed flue gas through the unit -coil.
He was not getting sufficient heat. He thought of burning more fuel to enhance the capacity, so
he increased grate area. He found clinker formation so he changed blower. At last, he came to
us because of frequent coil punctures and frequent oil failure.
Friends, We appreciate innovation as well the quest for saving money. But such approach
doesn\u2019t help. This leads to more wastage due to experiment\u2019s cost, loss of time, money and it is
security hazards \u2013 fire hazard too.
A thermic fluid heater is different than a boiler. Here, we are circulating oil. In case of puncture,
it adds fuel to fire. In TF heater, We have controlled heat flux. We also need proper oil velocity
through the heater.
We have to select the heater considering heat flux area, coil configuration, velocity through coil
else we lose substantially. If we increase unnecessary flow, then we consume more power.
Again there is a safety hazard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please look into following while selecting the heater:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plan everything on board first, then implement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please take care while selecting heater to:
a. Get higher oil life.
b. Prevent loss of oil.
c. Manpower cost.
d. Avoid forced shutdown.
e. And enjoy the fruits of expansion – troublefree.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
