Description of Thermal Equipment

  • Roles and terminology of heat exchangers, furnaces and boilers.
  • Design technology: working principles, organization of the flows of fluids, function of the constituent parts.

Heat Transfer

  • Characteristics of the modes of heat transfer. Thermal flows.
  • Conduction and convection: thermal potential, resistance, thermal conductivity, convection coefficient, special case of phase changes, overall exchange coefficient, activation of heat circulation, effects of fouling.
  • Radiation: characteristics of the emission and absorption of radiation, special case of combustion gases, application to furnaces and boilers.
  • Applications: analysis of the conditions of heat transfer through the thermal insulation of a
  • furnace, in an exchange zone.

Heat Exchangers

Heat exchange law in relation to the mode of fluids circulation: single counter-current

  • exchanger, co-current, type 1-2 and 2-4 exchangers, arrangement of exchangers in series
  • and in parallel.
  • Special case of condensersre-boilers and air coolers.
  • Testing and monitoring of performances: influence of the installed exchange area and of
  • fouling on heat exchanger performances.
  • Applications: determination of the exchange area needed for a given service in relation to
  • the circulation of fluids, monitoring fouling and predicting the performance of a group of heat
  • exchangers.

Furnaces and Boilers

  • Working conditions and distribution of the heat supply.
  • Circulation of combustion gases, setting-up and adjustment of the draft.
  • How combustion works: characteristics of industrial fuels, the working of burners.
  • Monitoring and testing of combustion and firing.
  • Recovery of the heat released by the burners: efficiency, possibilities for improvement and
  • limits.
  • Applications: analysis of the working conditions of a furnace, calculating its yield, study of

heat exchanges in the radiation zone

BTS attendance certificate will be issued to all attendees completing minimum of 80% of the total course duration.
