25
Direct Type vs. Indirect Type Fired
❑Heaters
In a fired heater, heat liberated by the combustion of fuels is transferred
to fluids contained in tubular coils within an insulated enclosure.
Based on the way the output heat is transferred to the process user:
▪ Direct heating to a coil where process medium is circulated to consume
the heat, by sensible energy (temperature rise) or Latent heat (boiling or
changing process medium )
▪ Indirect type utilizes intermediate heating bath of heating fluid such as
saline water, heating oil, which is heated by a fired tube where fuel is
burnt as injected into the coil with air. This bath transfer heat to another
coil where the process medium is circulated to absorb the heat.
▪ Indirect type heater is slightly less efficient but provides better safety
because it eliminates the inevitable burning of process medium as it
leaks from its coil by the direct heating fuel flames.

Energy Saving Boiler
▪ Components
Economizers: are used to recover heat from the boiler
flue gases and thereby increase boiler efficiency. The heat
absorbed by economizer is transferred to the boiler
feedwater flowing through the inside of the economizer
tubes.
▪ Air Pre-heaters: The purpose of the air preheater is to
recover the heat from the boiler flue gas which increases
the thermal efficiency of the boiler by reducing the useful
heat lost in the flue gas.
▪ Boiler Blowdown Control System: The removal of some
quantity of water from the boiler in order to achieve an
acceptable concentration of dissolved and suspended 49
solids in the boiler water.

Boiler Efficiency Improvement
▪ For natural gas-fired boilers, the
lowest temperature to which flue
gas can be cooled is about 250°F
to prevent condensation and
possible stack or stack liner
corrosion.
▪ The condensing economizer
improves waste heat recovery by
cooling the flue gas below its dew
point, which is about 135°F for
products of combustion of NG.
▪ The economizer reclaims both
sensible heat from the flue gas
and latent heat by condensing
flue gas water vapor (see Table 1)

Boiler Terminology (1/3)
▪ MCR (Maximum Continuous Rating)
Steam boilers rated output is also usually defined as MCR (Maximum
Continuous Rating). This is the maximum evaporation rate that can be
sustained for 24 hours and may be less than a shorter duration
maximum rating (e.g. Shoubra P. Station: 1072 ton/hr)
▪ Boiler Rating
Conventionally, boilers are specified by their capacity to hold water and
the steam generation rate. Often, the capacity to generate steam is
specified in terms of equivalent evaporation (kg of steam / hour at 100°
C).
61
Boiler Terminology (2/3)
▪ Boiler turndown
Boiler turndown is the ratio between full boiler output and
the boiler output when operating at low fire. Typical boiler
turndown is 4:1. The ability of the boiler to turndown
reduces frequent on and off cycling. Fully modulating
burners are typically designed to operate down to 25% of
rated capacity
▪ Balanced draught
The condition achieved when the pressure of the gas in
a furnace is the same as or slightly below that of the
atmosphere in the enclosure or building housing. 62
Boiler Terminology (3/3)
▪ Blow down
The removal of some quantity of water from the boiler in order

Steam Turbines
There are three basic types of steam turbines:
▪ Condensing turbines, in which all the steam that enters
the turbine expands to the high-vacuum condensing
pressure.
▪ Back-pressure turbines, which operate with an exhausts
pressure equal or greater than, atmospheric pressure to
meet the process steam requirements.
▪ Extraction turbines, in which steam is extracted at one or
more intermediate stages, often at comparatively high
pressures, either to meet process load or to heat boiler
feed water. Extraction can be applied to condensing or
back-pressure turbines.

Specific Steam Consumption
103
• Functions of Compressors
• Compression of gases and vapours is an important operation in chemical
and petrochemical plants.
• Compressor is a mechanical device used to increase the pressure of
compressible fluid, either gas or vapour, by reducing the fluid specific
volume during passage of the fluid through compressor.
• As gases are compressible, the compressor reduces the volume of the
gas and transports the fluid through pipes.
• The benefits of operating the gas at higher pressures includes the
ability to transmit larger volumes of gas through a given size of a
pipeline, lower transmission losses due to friction, and the scapability to
transmit gas over long distances without additional boosting stations.
104
• Classification of Compressors
105
Positive Displacement Compressors
• In a positive displacement compressor, a fixed amount of
the working fluid (gas or vapour) is positively contained
during its passage through the machine and undergoes
changes of pressure energy by means of variation in
the volume of container.

Dynamic Compressors
• Dynamic compressors are used for converting mechanical
energy into fluid energy (pressure or enthalpy rise),
dealing with compressible fluids.
• They are based on a dynamic principle where kinetic
energy is imparted by a rotating impeller to a gas in order to
keep it continuously flowing, while a suitable diffuser
converts this kinetic energy into pressure energy.
• For very low pressure ratios, these machines are called fans
or blowers where most of the mechanical energy input is
converted into kinetic energy.
• For high pressure ratio compressors, the pressure rise may
be achieved in more than one stage; i.e., in a multistage 113

124
Off-Design Conditions
• At the design point, the minimum energy loss takes
place.
• At off-design conditions, the energy loss will be higher.
• So, the shape of characteristic curve deviates from the
straight line relation ship.
• Taking into consideration effect of leakage loss the curve
is shifted to the lift.
• Surge effects will limit the relationship at a certain
minimum value which represents the stability limit of
operation.
• Choking limits flow rate to a certain maximum value 125
126
Surge
• The general shape of the characteristic curve for pressure
ratio as a function of mass flow rate at constant rotational
speed is a descending line.
• But, incidences increase with decreasing flow rate.
• So, boundary layer separation occurs below a certain flow
rate.
• The flow is then said to be stalled, meaning that the
compressor does not function properly anymore.
• During surge, a noisy and often violent flow process can occur
causing cyclic periods of backflow through the compressor.
• Operation in surge not only drastically reduces the
performance of the compressor but can damage the 127
compressor and its installation.
• In stalled flow, the
tangential force of the
blade drops.
• This causes a
maximum in the
characteristic curve for
pressure ratio as a
function of flow rate.
• This maximum may be
very sharp.
128
Cell Propagation Mechanism
129
Choking
• By reduction of the backpressure of a subsonic flow
compressor, the flow rate increases and all velocities
increase until sonic speed is attained in some
through-flow section.
• With further reduction of the backpressure, the flow rate
then stays blocked.
• This phenomenon is called choking.
• The choking flow rate depends on the rotational speed,
both for choking within the rotor blade passages as for
choking in the stator vane passages.

Pump Capacity Regulation
• The discharge of pumps may be controlled by different
methods depending on application:
❑ Discharge Throttling: the cheapest and most common
method.
❑ Speed Regulation: by changing the speed of pump
driver and is mainly used with centrifugal pumps.
❑ Adjustable Guide Vanes: The vanes angles produce
pre-whirl of flow at inlet to the impeller, hence for the
same speed, the head, capacity and pump efficiency
may be changed.
❑ Rotor-Blade Pitch Adjustment: by changing the
stagger angle of rotor blades while running and is used 172
only with axial and diagonal rotors.
