  2. Turndown ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turndown_ratio

    Boilers using the pressure jet type of burner, i.e. with a fan, (usually with 35 second oil) can achieve a turndown ratio of 2, while the rotary cup type burner can achieve 4. [3] Condensing oil boilers are fairly unusual; the condensate from the combustion of oil is far more aggressive than gas, mainly due to sulphur content.

  3. Condensing boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_boiler

    Almost all have modulating burners. These allow the power to be reduced to match the demand. Boilers have a turndown ratio which is the ratio of the maximum power output to the minimum power output for which combustion can be maintained. If the control system determines that the demand falls below the minimum power output, then the boiler will ...

  5. Pulverized coal-fired boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulverized_coal-fired_boiler

    The powdered coal from the pulverizer is directly blown to a burner in the boiler. The burner mixes the powdered coal in the air suspension with additional pre-heated combustion air and forces it out of a nozzle similar in action to fuel being atomized by a fuel injector in an internal combustion engine. Under operating conditions, there is ...

  6. Thermal efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_efficiency

    For a heat engine, thermal efficiency is the ratio of the net work output to the heat input; in the case of a heat pump, thermal efficiency (known as the coefficient of performance or COP) is the ratio of net heat output (for heating), or the net heat removed (for cooling) to the energy input (external work). The efficiency of a heat engine is ...

  7. Energy conversion efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_conversion_efficiency

    Energy conversion efficiency (η) is the ratio between the useful output of an energy conversion machine and the input, in energy terms. The input, as well as the useful output may be chemical, electric power, mechanical work, light (radiation), or heat. The resulting value, η (eta), ranges between 0 and 1. [1] [2] [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_fuel_utilization...

    The annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE; pronounced 'A'-'Few' or 'A'-'F'-'U'-'E') is a thermal efficiency measure of space-heating furnaces and boilers.The AFUE differs from the true 'thermal efficiency' in that it is not a steady-state, peak measure of conversion efficiency, but instead attempts to represent the actual, season-long, average efficiency of that piece of equipment ...
