Combustion Efficiency Test in Burners

The burner releases heat energy by mixing fuels such as fuel oil, LPG, LNG, CNG, natural gas, diesel, powdered coal with the air at certain rates.

Burners are classified as follows according to the type of fuel used:

- Single Fuel Burners
- Solid Fuel Burners
- Liquid Fuel Burners
- Gas Fuel Burners
- Special Fuel Burners
- Dual Fuel Burners
- Multi Fuel Burners

Combustion with Less Air

When combustion occurs with little air in the burners;

- The flame becomes a darker color than the yellow color it should be.
- The accumulation of soot and soot in burnt gases increases significantly.
- Soot accumulation occurs in smoke pipes.
- Heat transfer decreases.
- System efficiency decreases.
- Fuel consumption increases.
- Environmental pollution occurs because CO gas is released in large quantities.

Combustion with Excess Air

When combustion occurs with excess air in the burners;

- The flame will be lighter and brighter than the yellow color it should have been.
- The temperature of the burnt gas in the combustion chamber drops.
- Flue gas temperature increases, system efficiency decreases.
- Fuel cost increases.
- Excessive burning gases are thrown from the chimney and environmental pollution occurs.

Complete Combustion

When there is complete combustion in the burners;

- When there is complete combustion in the burner, the flame becomes yellowish.
- When full combustion occurs, no CO gas formation is observed in the flue gas.
- The gas coming out of the chimney does not cause environmental pollution.
- Maximum efficiency is obtained, the system is used in the most economical way.

In order for the burners to be used efficiently and correctly, they must undergo regular tests and measurements.
