The operation of the economizer of the P-50 boiler unit, as well as the conditions of its operation have been studied.
The economizer is one of the main components of the boiler unit. It works in very difficult conditions. The quality of the feed water supplied to the drum depends on the operation of the economizer. The thermal calculation of steam boiler type P-50 using different values of feed water temperatures at the inlet to the economizer and different coefficients of excess air in the furnace, identified and analyzed factors that negatively affect the operation of the water economizer to conduct a detailed analysis and development of recommendations to improve the operation of the steam boiler as a whole and separately economizing heating surfaces.
As a result of the calculations, the dependences of the heat perception of the economizer on the temperature of the feed water at the inlet to the economizer and the dependence of the excess air on the total volume of combustion products are obtained.
The paper considers in detail the possible causes of failure of economizers and factors that have a negative impact on the condition of the metal pipes; proposed recommendations that will increase the service life of economizers until the next repair campaign.
