Hot oil boiler

What is Hot oil boiler?

High temperatures are essential in the various manufacturing processes taking place today. Therefore, the presence of an environment that will serve as a heat exchange to meet this need is essential. Hot oil boilers are a suitable option for safe high temperature operations. This is a closed pressure vessel that contains thermal oil on one side of the boiler surface and channels on the other side where the heat-releasing gases generated during the combustion of the fuel are located. Has fully automatic control. It is highly efficient and environmentally friendly.

What is the working principle of hot oil boiler?

The principle of operation of such boilers is based on heating oil. The oil flows continuously through the pipes, made in the form of a horizontal or vertical structure, the thermal oil is heated to the desired temperature due to the thermal energy taken from the gases formed in the combustion chamber.

How to use the hot oil boiler?

First of all, the boiler must be placed on a level concrete floor. It should never be burned without oil in the boiler, and sufficient chimney draft must be ensured. Because poor draft not only reduces the efficiency of the boiler, but also poses a threat to human health. Of course, daily, monthly and yearly maintenance should not be interrupted.

What are the uses of oil boiler?

These products are used in industries such as heat supply of technological processes for pumping bitumen, fuel oil, the woodworking, chemical, food, textile and automotive industries, in the manufacture of products such as paper and rubber, and in high temperature processes such as cooking and drying. It is particularly suitable for use in low pressure plants.

What are the types of oil boilers?

These types of boilers are divided into varieties among themselves. The models that can be used may differ depending on the material used. Liquid fuel and natural gas models. In the model of the combustion system with a rotary grate, when the coal is poured onto the grate, it moves at the speed of the rotation of the grill. The fluidized bed model is a variant suitable for burning low calorie solid fuels and has a membrane part of the boiler. The model with a moving grate is also used in solid fuel systems, the combustion system is grate. Thanks to this, the product model can work in proportion to the heat demand.

Hot oil boilers for liquid fuel and gas

Hot oil boilers are used in situations where it is necessary to achieve a high level of temperature at a low level of pressure. The boilers are capable of running on natural gas and also on liquid fuel.

Oil boilers with Rotary Grate

In this system, the coal rotates after entering the boiler and continues to burn until the end of the process. The rotary grate oil boiler is known as one of the high efficiency boilers. A very small amount of slag is formed after combustion in the boiler, where the whole process takes place with automation.

Fluidized bed oil boilers

Fluidized bed boilers are boilers designed to burn solid fuels. Environmental friendliness and high efficiency are some of the reasons why these boilers are often preferred. In this boiler, combustion occurs above a layer that is a mixture of ash and coal.

Oil boilers with moving Grate

Moving grate boilers that can run on solid fuels have the ability to work proportionately to fully meet the heat demand. In this way, various heat requirements can be met with high efficiency. Gases resulting from combustion are emitted from the chimney within the limits allowed by the regulations.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using hot oil boiler?

First of all, it facilitates production in various industries. There is no scale problem in the boiler. The temperature can be better controlled, it can be operated at higher temperatures compared to hot water boilers. Not expensive to maintain and operate. However, speaking about these advantages, it is impossible not to mention the disadvantages. The thermal oil in the boiler is combustible. Therefore, there is a fire hazard in the event of a puncture or leakage of oil in the boiler. However, with prolonged use of the boiler at high temperatures, it loses its natural structure. As a result of this phenomenon, called cracking, the heat exchange characteristic of the boiler is reduced.
