INTRODUCTION
Transparent has developed wide variety of superefficient Heat Recovery Systems for harnessing all types of waste heat, originating from various fuels and from different industrial sources.
The Waste Heat Recovery Boilers are provided with Economizers which improve their thermal output and efficiency. Transparent superefficient Waste Heat Recovery Systems find ideal applications in Cogeneration Systems working on Reciprocating Engines and Gas Turbines.

Various sources of waste heat.


Exhaust heat recovery from Reciprocating Engine driven Gen-sets used for Captive Power Cogeneration and Independent Power Production. - Heavy fuel fired - Gas fired - Diesel fired Exhaust heat recovery from Gas Turbine exhaust. Jacket heat recovery from Engine Hot Waste Gases from - Scrap melting steel furnaces - Cement kilns - Industrial furnaces - Incinerators - Process Waste Gases

Converting into useful form


Energy is consumed in various forms like steam, hot water, Chilling, refrigeration etc. at different places. Please refer next page for separate matrix to check different useful forms of energy to which this waste heat can be converted. Transparent has expertise in converting this waste energy into the most beneficial form of energy for any customer.

Back pressure control on flue gas side Transparent provides automatic flue gas monitoring & control system. If the steam pressure exceeds the predetermined value, the flue gases automatically diverted to stack. This saves the source (Engine or turbine) from getting subjected to excessive back pressure. No such system exists in other make whrb (standard model). This is quite unsafe for the engine or turbine on which the WHRB is installed. Note : In case of gas fired engines or turbines, eventhough there is very little possibility of carbon accumulation but other possibilities do exist for excessive back pressure on flue gas side. It can happen either due to leakage of boiler tube or lube oil vapour condensation in abnormal conditions. Hence even in case of gas engines/turbines, above safety feature is of paramount importance.

Low water level safety trip Transparent provides automatic boiler water level monitoring & control system.In case the level falls below safe level, the flue gases automatically bypass the WHRB & go to stack. This eliminates boiler tubes overheating. No such system exists in other make WHRB (standard model). This is quite unsafe for the WHRB. Overheating of tubes can result into cracking & leakage. Note : Generally the feed pump & drum level controller system maintains desired level. Anyhow in case of abnormal situation the level can drop in spite of above system due to various reasons such as unavailability of water in F.W. tank, malfunctioning of drum level controller etc.

Efficiency and Outputs


Heat From the Gases
Flue gas from Engine at 5860C Flue gas out from WHRB at 1340C

Automatic 3 way Divertor Valve

Transparent WHRB recovers maximum possible heat from the gases. It gives atleast 7 to 10% extra output compared to other make. This needs a much bigger economizer & high manufacturing cost for Transparent but gives benefit to user in terms of more savings.

In other makes, eventhough economizer is provided, heat is recovered upto a temperature level where the manufacturing cost is less. This results in cost savings for WHRB supplier but recurring loss to the user.

COMPARISION
Divertor Valve
Transparent Make
From Engine Linear movement

Other Make
Possible leakage Swing type movement Flap To WHRB From Engine

Automatic pneumatically operated. Linear movement of valve(poppet). No possibility of jamming. Positive pneumatic pressure acts as good sealing force continuously when the valve reaches the respective positions. The poppet is pressed against the valve seat by pneumatic pressure eliminating possibility of any leakage. Force is applied at center of poppet ensuring equal distribution throughout the sealing edges. Made of Stainless steel which can work upto 8500C continuously.

Manually operated. Swing type movement of valve(flap). Possibility of jamming. No positive force is applied after the flap reaches its respective positions.The mechanical play in the gearbox results in small opening due to self weight of flap & flue gas back pressure. This can result in leakage in the long run. Force is applied at one end of flap. This results in unequal force distribution.The distant edge gets less force. Made of carbon steel alloy which is not suitable for more than 5000C.

Vertical Co-flow WHRB vs. other make WHRB

Tubes are placed vertically with axis parallel to gas flow. It does not obstruct the flow of gas. Possibilities of soot accumulation are less since vertical downward flow of flue gas will help in dislodging the soot particles.

Tubes are placed horizontally with their axis perpendicular to flow of gas. This results into obstruction to gas flow & soot particles are arrested on tube surface.

COMPARISION
Vertical Co-flow WHRB vs. other make WHRB
DRUM RISER DRUM DISCHARGE

PUMP SUCTION PUMP

Natural circulation design. No dependence on any external equipment for circulation. Uninterrupted circulation eliminates possibilities of higher TDS level in evaporator and subsequent scale deposition. Bare tubes reduces possibility of soot accumulation. Particularly for gases with high SPM like flue gases of F.O. engine, it is highly recommended to use only bare tubes without manufacturing cost goes up, user gets benefited. Bare tubes used in manufacturing are standard tubes available in market. In case of replacement user is not dependent on manufacturer for supply of tubes.
Main boiler

Forced circulation design. Circulation is dependent on pump. Failure of pump suddenly stops circulation and results into higher TDS level in evaporator and subsequent scale deposition. Pump has to operate at very high suction pressure making the operation critical. Finned tube construction invites accumulation of soot between fins. This type of tube is not recommended particularly for flue gases with high SPM. Their use should be restricted for cleaner flue gases like gas engine / turbine.

Finned tubes used have specific fin size, shape and configuration. These tubes have to be purchased only from manufacturer and hence user is completely dependent on manufacturer for lifetime of boiler.
Main boiler

Economizer 1st stage

Economizer 2nd stage

Economizer

Two stage economizer improves Heat recovery. Feed water is heated completely upto saturation temperature with waste heat after main boiler. This is done while maintaining feed water temperature at economizer inlet above 122 Deg.C even if temperature in tank is 85 90 Deg.C

Single stage economizer. Hence limited heat recovery.

Economizer

Feed water At 90 Deg.C

For flue gases of furnace oil with 4% sulphur, it is necessary to maintain metal temperature above 121 Deg.C. We provide auto temperature correction system which ensures that them feed water entering each stage of economizer is at-least at 122 Deg.C. This will ensure that all contact area is above the safe temperature level and will eliminate any possibility of corrosion. Two alternatives are available. Steam soot blowers are provided as one of the alternatives. As a second alternative, soot removal is done on-line with mechanical knockers. This has negligible operating costs. These soot blowers can operate automatically based on flue gas back pressure feedback signal or flue gas outlet temperature feedback signal.

Water in the tank directly enters Economizer without any temperature correction. Hence the tube wall temperature at economizer inlet drops below safe level and results into Cold end Corrosion. User has to buy the tubes frequently from manufacturer since these tube are not available in market.

Steam soot blower consume almost 3-4% of the steam output per day. This reduces net steam available to plant. Operation is manual and if not done properly, can create problems.
