Cost of Steam Generated by Natural Gas Boiler

The steam cost of a natural gas boiler refers to the cost of a natural gas boiler to produce steam, that is, how much fuel cost the boiler needs to produce steam per hour. For a gas-fired steam boiler burning a ton of natural gas, the burning value of the fuel is calculated at 8,500 calories. It takes 200,000 calories to heat a ton of water to 100 °C, plus the heat of vaporization and high steam temperature, The temperature (depending on the pressure) exceeds 100 C, and the heat loss is 8-15% (85-92% thermal efficiency). If the working force is 1.0 MPa and the gas consumption is 75-80 m3 per hour, actually mean that a ton gas fired steam boilers need about 80 m3 of natural gas, and then calculate the fuel cost of a ton steam boilers per hour according to the local gas price.

According to the above method, we can also calculate the fuel cost per hour for 2 tons gas fired boiler, how much natural gas is needed per hour for 5tons gas fired steam boiler, the gas consumption for gas-fired steam boiler and so on.
