An economiser is designed to recover waste heat from flue gases or exhaust streams and use it to preheat incoming fluids, typically water or air, in a system. This process improves overall energy efficiency by reducing the need for additional heating.
The shell and tube design in an economiser enhances thermal performance by maximizing the heat exchange surface area. The design allows for efficient heat transfer between the hot gases flowing through the tubes and the fluid surrounding the tubes in the shell, resulting in improved heat recovery and higher thermal efficiency.
An economiser improves energy utilisation in industrial applications by capturing and reusing waste heat from processes such as combustion or steam production. This recovered heat can be used to preheat boiler feedwater, air for combustion, or other process fluids, thereby reducing the overall energy consumption and improving the efficiency of the system.
Economisers play a crucial role in reducing operational costs by decreasing the amount of fuel or energy needed to reach the desired heating levels in industrial processes. By utilising recovered waste heat to preheat fluids, economisers lighten the load on primary heating equipment, resulting in significant savings on fuel, energy consumption, and associated operational expenses.
Economisers deliver exceptional heat transfer efficiency when compared to traditional heat exchangers, thanks to their innovative design. This often includes features like extended surfaces (fins) on tubes and optimised flow arrangements such as counterflow. These enhancements significantly boost the heat transfer rate by increasing the contact surface area and optimising the temperature gradient between the hot gases and the fluids being heated.
Economisers play a vital role in promoting environmental sustainability by significantly reducing fuel consumption and the associated greenhouse gas emissions. By enhancing energy efficiency and capturing waste heat, economisers help to lower the overall carbon footprint of industrial operations, fostering more sustainable energy use.
The counterflow or crossflow configuration significantly improves the thermal performance of an economiser by optimising the temperature gradient between the hot gases and the fluid being heated. In a counterflow arrangement, the hottest gases meet the hottest fluid, sustaining a high temperature difference throughout the heat exchanger, thereby maximising heat transfer efficiency.
Safety features integrated into an economiser may include pressure relief valves, temperature sensors, and flow switches to monitor and regulate operation, thereby preventing issues such as overheating, overpressure, or fluid blockages. These safeguards are crucial in protecting the system from potential hazards like thermal stress, material fatigue, or mechanical failure.
The design of an economiser plays a pivotal role in its performance, directly influencing heat transfer efficiency, pressure drop, and its compatibility with the existing system. Key factors such as the size and arrangement of heat exchange surfaces, the choice of materials, and the flow configuration—whether counterflow, parallel flow, or otherwise—are critical in achieving optimal performance in terms of heat recovery and energy efficiency.
Retrofitting an existing system with a new economiser entails a thorough evaluation of the current system’s operational parameters, followed by the selection of a compatible economiser design. The integration process is carefully managed to minimise disruption, typically involving modifications to piping, controls, and support structures to seamlessly accommodate the new equipment. These adjustments are essential to ensure the system operates efficiently, leveraging the enhanced heat recovery capabilities provided by the economiser.
