3.5 Maximum airflow condition
Special attention must be given to ensure that the
temperature rise of the air, passing through the
enclosure (duct channel) around the heat exchanger
tubes, is high enough to avoid condensation
forming within the tubes. This condensation
forming could occur by super cooling of the
products of combustion. Such condensation can be
the source of severe corrosion and damage to tubes
or part of the tubes.
Figure 5 indicates the probability of condensation
forming within the tubes reference :
-
the temperature rise of the air through the
enclosure (around the tubes) (see table 3b –
fig. 4)
-
the inlet air temperature passing over the heat
exchanger
In function of the expected minimum inlet air
temperature, the minimum required temperature
rise (to avoid condensation) must be derived from
the chart shown in figure 5.
Example
•
expected minimum inlet temperature = -5°C
•
minimum required temperature rise shown on
the chart = +13°K
Table 1 indicates the heat output (kW) of the
different models.
The maximum allowable airflow

through the
enclosure (duct channel) around the tubes

can be

Example :

model 4072 at 100% heat input : 72,00kW
results into Vmax = 16180m³/h
Remark
:
For air heaters with the option 2 stage gas valve
(50% minimum heat input) or the option
modulating gas valve (30% minimum heat input)
attention must be given to determine the
maximum allowable airflow in function of the
appropriate heat input.
