Oil Level Indicators in Transformer After 1 month of service, and every 3 to 5 years, check the tank oil level indicators. These are float operated, with the float mechanism magnetically coupled through the tank wall to the dial indicator. As level increases, the float rotates a magnet inside the tank. Outside the tank, another … Read more
Air Preheater in Thermal Power Plant As the entire heat of the flue gases cannot be extracted through the economizers, air preheaters are used to recover some of the heat from these gases. On an average increase of 20°C in the air temperature results in an increase in the boiler efficiency by 1%. The use … Read more
Economizer The economizer is used to heat feed water so as to recover a part of heat which would otherwise be lost through flue gases. It is connected in the passage of the flue gases in between the exit from the boiler and enter to the chimney. By its use, economical use of fuel is … Read more
