Description<br />
The Boiler Performance Optimization seminar is designed to aid personnel assigned the task of measuring<br />
and maintaining plant and boiler performance objectives. The emphasis will be on boiler performance in<br />
general and on Combustion System Optimization in particular. The lessons focus on the following systems<br />
and equipment:<br />
• Utility Boilers<br />
• Fuel Firing Equipment/Firing Systems<br />
- T-fired<br />
- Wall-fired<br />
- Oil and Gas<br />
• Pulverizers<br />
• Flue Gas Emissions Optimization<br />
• Soot Blower Optimization<br />
• Boiler Controls<br />
With the exception of the coverage of pulverizers, these theories and calculations can be applied to<br />
oil and gas-fired boilers.<br />
Who will benefit most from participating?<br />
• Engineers responsible for plant and boiler performance<br />
• Plant Instrument & Controls Engineers and Technicians<br />
• Testing staff<br />
• Operations/Shift Supervisors<br />
NOTE: A minimum of 3 years of performance engineering or plant engineering is recommended.<br />
Content<br />
Fundamentals of Boiler Performance are addressed from multiple perspectives:<br />
• Steam generator design principles<br />
• Coal, ash, air, and water properties<br />
• Basic turbine performance<br />
• Boiler efficiency and heat transfer analysis<br />
• Fossil fuel combustion<br />
• Combustion optimization<br />
• Pulverizer performance<br />
• Boiler operation and troubleshooting<br />
Course Objectives<br />
At the successful completion of the training, the student will be able to:<br />
• Identify performance problems with boilers and pulverizer firing systems<br />
• Evaluate the impacts of off-design performance<br />
• Devise testing programs to evaluate performance shortcomings<br />
• Identify test data inconsistencies<br />
• Plan corrective measures for performance problems<br />
• Communicate with operations to determine if the required changes are understood<br />
and applied to everyday operation.<br />
