Technical description of the burner
3.8.1
Burner firing rates according to air density
Tab. F
The FIRING RATE area values have been obtained considering a
surrounding temperature of 68°F (20°C), and an atmospheric pres-
sure of 398” W.C. and with the combustion head adjusted (See “Fir-
ing rate” on page 9).
The burner may be required to operate with combustion air at a
higher temperature and/or at higher altitudes.
Heating of air and increase in altitude produce the same effect: the
expansion of the air volume, i.e. the reduction of air density.
The burner fan's delivery remains substantially the same, but the
oxygen content per cubic meter and the fan's head are reduced.
It is therefore important to know if the maximum output required of
the burner at a given combustion chamber pressure remains within
the burner's firing rate range even at different temperature and al-
titude conditions. Proceed as follows to check the above:
1
Find the correction factor F in the Tab. F for the plant's air
temperature and altitude.
2
Divide the burner's delivery Q by F in order to obtain the
equivalent delivery Qe:
3
In the firing rate range of the burner, Fig. 5, indicate the work
point defined by:
– Qe = equivalent delivery
– H1 = combustion chamber pressure
– The resulting point A must remain within the firing rate
range.
4
Plot a vertical line from Point A as shown in Fig. 5 and find the
maximum pressure H2 of the firing rate.
5
Multiply H2 by F to obtain the maximum reduced pressure H3
of the firing rate.
If H3 is greater than H1, as shown in Fig. 5, the burner delivers the
output required.
If H3 is lower than H1, the burner's delivery must be reduced. A re-
duction in delivery is accompanied by a reduction of the pressure
in the combustion chamber:
Qr = reduced delivery
H1r = reduced pressure
Example
, a 5% delivery reduction:
Qr = Q x 0.95
H1r = H1 x (0.95)
2
Steps 2 - 5 must now be repeated using the new Qr and H1r values.
Important:
the combustion head must be adjusted in respect to the
equivalent delivery Qe.
