Flue gas is a type of exhaust gas that exits the atmosphere through a pipe often called a flue. Flue gas can be seen exiting power plants, a fireplace, oven, boiler or steam generator.

How can you calculate flue gas loss on ignecation?

Flue gas loss on ignition can be calculated by measuring the difference in stack gas temperature before and after ignition, along with the flow rate of the gas and its composition. By determining the energy content of the flue gas before and after combustion, the flue gas loss on ignition can be calculated using the energy balance equation. This measurement helps in assessing the efficiency of the combustion process and identifying opportunities for improvement.

What is the purpose of a bypass on an industrial boiler economiser?

If the boiler fuel contains Sulphur (and most do) combustion products in the flue gas will include Oxides of Sulphur (SO2 and SO3). SO3 combines with water (H2O) to make Sulphuric Acid (H2SO4). If the temperature of the flue gas falls below the dew point, the combination of the acid with the moisture in the flue gas causes corrosion of the flue gas duct work. Bypassing the economiser in the early stages of a boiler start keeps the flue gas temperature above the dew point.


How do you calculate the flue gas velocity in airpreheater?

To calculate the flue gas velocity in an air preheater, you would need to know the volumetric flow rate of the flue gas passing through the preheater and the cross-sectional area of the preheater. You can then use the formula: Velocity = Volumetric flow rate / Cross-sectional area of preheater. This calculation will give you the velocity at which the flue gas is moving through the air preheater.


What are three instruments that a flue gas analysis kit might contain?

A flue gas analysis kit may contain a digital manometer to measure draft pressures, a flue gas analyzer to measure levels of oxygen, carbon monoxide, and other gases, and a thermocouple for temperature measurement.


Should you close your flue when using a gas fireplace?

No. The flue must be open to allow the carbon monoxide to escape from the house.
