    Hot Oil System

    Uploaded by

    Abdulmalik Hakim
    The hot oil system supplies heat to processes in the plant by increasing the temperature of oil and providing heat to steam generators. The main users of hot oil include systems for crystallization and hydrogenation reactors. A natural draft, forced draft, or induced draft furnace burns fuel to provide hot oil as a heating medium. Heat is transferred through conduction, convection, and radiation. The furnace takes natural gas, biogas, and pilot gas as inputs and outputs combustion gases and heated oil. Calculations show the energy pickup and losses at different points in the system. The furnace efficiency can be improved by reducing air infiltration through sealed openings.

    Hot Oil System

    1. Main function of hot oil


    To supply heat to ISBL process by increase the temperature and supply heat for the steam generators.

    2. Main hot oil users in plant


    -For flush system-increase the temperature for crystallization.
    -Hydrogenation reactor.
    -Kettle steam generator.

    3. Function of furnace and how it works.


    Furnace is use to provide hot oil as a process heating medium and comprises all of the equipment
    needed to burn the fuel. The heaters are identical

    4. Furnace type
    -Natural draft furnace: do not use an artificial means of creating draft but uses natural tendency for hot
    gases to rise.
    -Forced draft furnace: combustion air is furnished to the burners of a furnace with the assistance of
    fans.
    -Induced draft furnace: movement of combustion gases from the the furnace to the stack is assisted by
    fans.
    -Balanced draft furnace: furnaces have fans placed on both the intake and flue sides of the firebox.
    AB101 is the direct-fired heat exchanger.

    5.
    6. Heat transfer principles
    Conduction: transfer of heat through a substance, or transfer of heat from direct physical contact of one
    substance with another.
    Convection: transfer of heat by the flow of heated fluid.
    Radiation: process of transmitting heat energy in the form of waves.

    7. Input and Output of furnace

    loss

    N.G. Furnace

    input output

    air

    Fuel used in the furnace: natural gas, biogas and pilot gas.

    a) Energy pick up by hot oil from furnace.

    =
    2.671
    = (1345000 /)( )(326 303 )
    .
    7
    = 8.3 10 /
    b) Energy pick up by steam from hot oil

    =

    = (8000 /)(2.582 )(303 315 )
    .

    = -2.5 10 /

    c) Energy utilize by ISBL process

    Energy at kettle boilers


    =
    = (28 )(1800 /)
    = 50400

    d) Energy release by Natural Gas.

    NG calorific value = 38.6 /3


    = (2849 3 /) (38.6 /3 )
    = 109971.4 /

    e) Furnace efficiency

    Efficiency of the furnace can be improve by reduce the air infiltration by sealed the openings. Furnace
    typically operates at an internal pressure which is less than atmospheric or negative. Therefore, any
    openings in the furnace will allow ambient air to be infiltrated or leaked into the box and result of this
    leakage has the same effect on flue gas rates as operating at high excess air levels through the burners.
