Power steam boiler 1

• Thermal Energy, Semester 1, position 2

Reaching the competence and academic skills and methods for it's acquiring. Developing creative capabilities and mastering the specific practical skills. Goals determine the specific results which should be achieved within the subject. Goals also represent basis for control of the achieved results. Activities in this subject are in accordance with basic tasks and goals of the study program.

After successfully completing the course, the students will be able to: • Calculate the material balance of the combustion process and the enthalpies of combustion products for solid fuels. • Choose the excess air and apply flue gases recirculation. • Get to know more about the structure of the irradiated and convective evaporator. • Acquainted with the main superheater types and temperature control systems of a superheated vapor. • Acquainted with the basic types of water heaters and air heaters. • Calculate the heat balance of the steam boiler and its heat surfaces.

Worikng principle of a steam boiler and definitions of basic concepts; Fuels for steam boilers; Combustion material balance; Excess air; Flue gases enthalpy; Steam boiler heat balance, losses and efficiency; Steam boiler furnace; Steam boiler evaporators with natural and forced circulation loop; Half-radiation and convection evaporators; Radiation, half-radiation and convection superheaters; Reheaters; Different types of water heaters; Recuperative air heaters and regenerative air heaters.

Auditory exercises consist from demonstration exercises(classification of boilers; steam boiler construction; main and auxiliary devices and equipment); Working project - coal combustion material balance (coal calorific value, theoretical air volume for combustion , theoretical flue gas volume, flue gases enthalpy diagram as a function of temperature and excess air); worikng principle of a industrial steam boiler; wetermining the losses, efficiency and fuel consumption of the given steam boiler; furnace dimensioning; heat and material balance of steam boiler heating surfaces.

Necessary condition: Bachelor's degree.

Handouts which will be at student's disposal a week in advance.
