Abstract
This invention relates to a capacity verification system and its operating method that enables the determination of anomalies in the operating conditions of the combustion boiler (10) by comparing the measured temperature difference (dTo) between sensors (16, 17) with the predefined temperature difference (dTa) corresponding to certain fan RPM values, while the heating water is circulated in the primary circuit.
Description
- The present invention relates to a capacity verification system and method for detecting anomalies that may occur during operation by comparing the difference between heat exchanger inlet and outlet temperatures measured during field operation of boilers with a pre-assigned temperature difference value for specific fan revolutions.
- In order to explain the state of the art, we can describe some possible problems as follows. Having a blockage in boilers used for central heating and/or domestic hot water, in the pipes inside the boiler, in the water channels of the main heat exchanger and in the plate heat exchanger, or not working of the circulation pump at the expected capacity are common problems. These problems reduce the water flow rate in the boiler, prevent the efficient transfer of the heat generated by combustion to the water and reduce the heat transfer efficiency.
- In addition to these, in gas-fired boilers, accumulation of dirt in the combustion chamber and thus congestion, congestion in the chimney that discharges the combustion products, or increased pressure loss due to the use of a very long chimney are also among the frequently encountered problems in the field. These problems cause the nominal capacity of the boiler to decrease by reducing the flow rate of the combustion air-gas mixture in the main heat exchanger.
- In the known method, early diagnosis of these anomalies that reduce the boiler's heat transfer efficiency is impossible without using additional equipment to measure the water flow rate in the boiler. In addition, early detection of these anomalies that reduce the boiler's nominal capacity is impossible without using additional equipment to measure the gas or air flow rate entering the combustion chamber.
- In summary, in the known method, it is not possible to detect these anomalies before they cause any customer complaints and before the service/technician examines the product after this complaint. It is important to detect these anomalies before they get big enough to cause customer complaints and to take the necessary precautions for the efficient and safe use of the related device.

- In case the measured temperature difference is greater than the predefined temperature difference, then the controller estimate that the anomalies are caused by a blockage on a water passage on primary circuit or an anomaly of the circulation pump.
- The invention is also a capacity verification system operating method for a combustion boiler which comprises a main heat exchanger, a circulation pump, a fan wherein the fan supplies air/gas mixture to the main heat exchanger at least one inlet temperature sensor to measure inlet water temperature entering to main heat exchanger, and at least one outlet temperature sensor to measure outlet water temperature exiting from the main heat exchanger, and the method comprising the steps of
