FIRE TUBE BOILERS- WETBACK & DRYBACK

Boiler is a closed vessel that is used to produce steam at desired pressure.There is a reversal chamber for flue gases between 1st & 2nd pass is provided inside the boiler shell, Based on this reversal chamber boilers are differentiated into Wetback and Dry-back.
In dryback boiler rear wall is lined with refractory. In dryback boiler reversal chamber has a rear wall that is lined with refractory, which passes combustion gasses from the furnace to multiple tube sheets and resulting in radiation losses.The dry back boiler design uses a common rear tube sheet and features convenient fire-side and water-side access. Dryback boilers also require regular refractory and tube sheet inspection, which can be costly maintenance items.
Wetback boiler designs have a water gap between the furnace and back wall, Hence the radiation losses due to refractory lined reversal chamber in the back end smoke box are eliminated as the complete heat of the furnace is transferred to the water inside the shell. This increases the efficiency and reduces maintenance & break-down costs of boiler.The water jacket eliminates the need for a refractory wall and costly refractory maintenance.
Ofcource there are deference in terms of no of passes, will be differentiated some other time. Email me for more details: www.versolgroup.com

Renewable energy Solutions for Water Heating

There are a number of ways you can generate your own energy at home from low or zero carbon ‘micro generation’ technology. Making your own energy, instead of using mains gas and electricity, will reduce your carbon footprint. Solar Panels Solar panels harness the power of sunlight to heat your home and hot water . An in-house display will allow you to see when energy is being generated, enabling you to make the most of the free power - for example, by running your washing machine at these times. Any extra energy you generate but don't use will be sent to the National Grid, which you'll get paid for. But there are a lot of factors to consider, such as the cost of the installation, and whether your home is in the best position to harness the power of sunlight. Solar thermal panels generate heat. Solar photovoltaics (PV) generate electricity. Wood-burning stoves Wood-burning stoves aren't cheap to install, but the heat a stove generates can mean you don't hav...

ARE YOU MAINTAINING YOUR BOILER WELL, IS IT WORTH SPENDING?

The boiler is one of the most intensively used household / industrial appliances, but unless the heating suddenly stops working or your water won’t warm up, faults can go unnoticed. A  boiler  breakdown can be frustrating and costly, especially if you’re in the middle of winter. But certain failures can also be a danger to you if not spotted in time. Regular maintenance should help keep your boiler running smoothly. But, like most machines, unexpected issues can always crop up. When they do, unless you’re a gas engineer, it’s not always easy to know when to take action. 1)    RADIATORS TAKE LONGER TO HEAT UP Do your radiators stay tepid or take hours to get hot? This could mean that your boiler is on its way out. Most modern boilers can reach their maximum temperature quickly and produce heat almost instantly. But it could also mean your heating system is filled with sludge – this causes blockages and cold spots on your radiators. Dirty water circula...

VERSOPUMP- Versol Heat Pumps : Advantages and Disadvantages VERSOPUMP Heat pumps  represent systems that ‘pump’ or move heat from one place to another by using a compressor and a circulating structure of liquid or gas refrigerant, through which heat is extracted from outside sources and pumped indoors. Pumping the heat uses less electricity as compared to when electricity is solely used as a means to convert it. During the summers, the cycle can be reversed and the unit acts like an air conditioner. Heat pumps represent the most efficient alternative to fuel, oil and electric systems in regards to both heating and cooling. Gas furnaces do a relative good job, rated close to 98 per cent efficient, however they do not represent a long term solution from a carbon footprint aspect. Heat pumps supply more heating and cooling capacity than the amount of electricity used to run them. Properly designed and installed heat pumps regularly attain more t...
