flue Speed determination

Speed ​​Determination in Chimney
Speed ​​Determination in Chimney

Emission measurements and the amount of fuels used by the organizations and businesses are determined by the emission measurements. Detection of gases and particles polluting the air during combustion and the flue gases emitted to the environment is only possible through emission measurements. These measurements are compared to see whether the values ​​obtained comply with the limits set by legal regulations and national and international standards.

In order for the chimneys to function and function properly, that is to be able to discharge the exhaust gases formed after the combustion, the air density in the chimney must be lower than the ambient density. For this, the interior of the chimneys must be warmer than the outside environment. As hot air comes out of the chimney, it also carries the waste gases out.

The velocity of the air flow through the chimneys determines the traction force of the chimney. The determination of speed in the chimneys in enterprises is aimed to determine this.

The flue draft results from the pressure difference between the hot gases generated by combustion and the outside air. The rate of rise of gases increases with their temperature. In this case, the chimneys will naturally have strong traction. In order to be able to talk about a good chimney draw here, the characteristics of the chimney are as important as the characteristics of the combustion devices.

The chimney speed should not be too strong or insufficient, and should be kept as balanced as possible. If the flue speed is insufficient, there is a danger of spraying back. This causes the chimney to become dirty and clogged quickly. At the same time, combustion is inefficient and causes environmental pollution. This not only increases maintenance costs but also shortens the life of the devices.

If the flue speed is too strong, this time the device may be damaged by overheating and cause unnecessary energy consumption.

With chimney velocity measurements, enterprises have the opportunity to take timely measures and reduce their costs. In addition, environmental pollution is prevented.
