Steam boiler don't have constant thermal efficiency. There is no steam
boiler which has 100 % thermal efficiency, because there are some heat
losses which reduce the efficiency. The sources of heat loss are
dependent on types of boiler. They can be different based on type of
fuel, combustion / firing process, and so on. Solid fuel usually
influence higher heat loss than liquid or gaseous fuel.
- Heat lost to dry flue gases.
- Heat lost to moisture present in the fuel.
- Heat lost to steam formed by combustion of hydrogen.
- Heat lost due to unburnt carbon in ashpit.
- Heat lost to incomplete combustion of carbon to carbon monoxide.
- Heat lost due to radiation etc.
Above facts about business defined are true. Boiler are really sensitive things. A good QC department must be working for a HVAC company to better get the results. Heating and Cooling Milton
