Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of judging ash accumulation in a convection section of a flue of a heating furnace, and in particular to a method for judging ash accumulation in a convection section of a flue of a heating furnace in an oil field. Background Art

[0002] Oilfield heater combustion produces a large number of tiny ash particles. As they flow along the flue gas toward the flue outlet, they tend to accumulate on the external heat exchange surfaces of the boiler flue's convection section due to various interactions, including surface tension, viscous forces between the particles and the furnace tube wall, molecular adhesion, electrostatic attraction, and chemical affinity. The thermal conductivity of the ash layer on the boiler's heating surface is 400 to 1000 times lower than that of the metal tube wall. Therefore, ash accumulation severely impairs heat transfer across the convection section, leading to deteriorated heat transfer, increased exhaust gas temperatures, reduced furnace thermal efficiency, increased fuel consumption, and increased flow resistance in the air and smoke system. Currently, there is no effective method for assessing ash accumulation in the convection section of oilfield heater flues to assess the extent of ash accumulation and provide prompt cleaning instructions.
