Fuel Burning Installation in a boiler, Flame Detection

Fuel Burning Installation

The fuel burning installation consists of an air blower, a burner
and fuel supply. The air blower supplies air for combustion and
p u rging before and after any combustion. The burner atomizes the
oil fuel for ease of ignition and good combustion. The burner, or
more exactly nozzle, in a gas fired boiler does not atomize the gas
but provides a cone of flame of the designed length and angle for
optimum combustion.

Flame Detection

A burner-control system must incorporate means of assuring the
presence or absence of flame on each individual burner regardless
of the type of fuel being burned. Ultraviolet (UV) flame detectors
have been successfully applied for all types of fuels. Flame
monitoring devices in current use are designed for on-off type of
operation based on the presence or absence of the flame. Some
plants today are using closed-circuit television to provide a means
of continuous furnace observation by the control room, and more
applications are expected in future.
