Why is steam spewing out of oil burner?

If your chimney flue is cool enough, water will condense inside, and then evaporate via steam when the boiler fires. You may also have water coming in from rain, and may want to purchase a chimney cap to prevent water from getting in.


Why is the steam pressure coming out of the boiler low?

Depends on the situation! It may be needed at only a low pressure. Otherwise it may be the result of reduced heat input or of the input of cold feed-water.


What is the Function of economizer in boilers?

Basically . economiser is located in between exit of boiler and entry of air preheater. when the flue gases are coming out from boiler they take away a lot of heat. economiser utilize this heat from flue gases. and these heat is used to heat the feed water which is going to feed the bolier. hence by using economiser the coal consumption required to heat the feed water is reduced hence cost reduced.


What is the difference between a condensing central heating boiler and a combination boiler?

A combination boiler can use one of two different fuels to heat the water. Common combinations include natural gas/propane and oil, or wood and oil combinations. A condensing boiler uses a secondary heat exchanger to condense water vapour (steam) in the products of combustion down to water. Here's what that means: When any hydrocarbon (gas, propane, oil, even wood) burns, it gives off at least two "products of combustion. The carbon combines with oxygen to create CO2, carbon dioxide. The hydrogen combines with oxygen to create water vapour, or steam. (If combustion is "incomplete," there will be other trace products as well.) It's the water vapour or steam we're concerned with here. To boil 1 pound of water requires 960 BTUs of heat. Conversely, if you condense steam down into 1 pound of water, you will recover 960 BTUs. The fuel is burned in the "primary heat exchanger," where of course it releases a tremendous amount of heat into the water we're warming up. Then the "products of combustion" are drawn by a fan into the "secondary heat exchanger." When the water vapour or steam component of the products of combustion hits the relatively cool walls of this second heat exchanger, they condense down into liquid water. As they do, they release heat into the boiler water through the walls of the secondary exchanger. The liquid water then goes down a drain. Obviously, the boiler water has to be cooler than the steam component of the products of combustion in order for the heat to travel into it. So we make sure that this water is what's coming back to the boiler from the heating system. Again, for this method to work well, it's best applied in a "radiant in-floor" type heating system, where we don't heat the boiler water up to as high a temperature in the first place. --The HVAC Veteran


Is there a direction of current with an Axial Capacitor?

Absolutely. The end of the body of the capacitor that has a radial indentation (like it was crimped) is the positive end. The manufacturers also color coat the ends, depending on the size of the capacitor. The black is the positive and the silver is negative. If you are doing an in-line installation (HID headlight kit, stereo, etc.), put the negative end of the capacitor where the source of current is coming from and the the positive end where it needs to go to. If the polarity is reversed, you may only get a momentary blip of power and then nothing at all. Just reverse the installation to correct it. Hope this helps. - mn1225

What is the feed check valve of boiler?

The feed check valve of a boiler is on the line coming out of the boiler it is usually to prevent the water from going back in to the boiler its coming out of so it would build up excessive amounts of pressure which will cause the t&p valve to blow temperature and pressure


What is wrong with boiler if you see black smoke coming out of chimney?

What is a boiler check valve?

*A boiler check valve is usually made by Watts and called a Watts 9D. This prevents the water that goes into the boiler backflowing and having the heating water from the boiler coming back into the domestic water and having you drink it or shower in it.* Cheers,QuiteSomething

How do you connect new 6x9 rear speakers to the factory wiring in a 1990 Mercury Topaz?

First of all you will need to snip the factory connector off near the speaker(s) you intend to replace. Then it is a matter of trial and error to get the correct polarity. If the polarity is reversed, you will still get sound out of the speaker, however, the tone coming out of the speaker will be higher (little to no bass). If that happens, reverse the wires and mount the speakers.

What does a car have white smoke coming from the exhaust when put into reverse?

Reverse has nothing to do with it, unless the smoke is coming from your differential. White smoke typically indicates you are burning oil somewhere.

What can an electric boiler be used for?

An electric water boiler is a small appliance used to boil water. This can then be used for hot drinks or in a recipe that requires boiling water. An electric boiler is also helpful if the water coming from the tap contains contaminants, because boiling the water will eliminate them.
