Aug 16, 2017· For example, if we have a natural gas boiler with an input rating of 100,000 Btu/h and a heating capacity of 85,000, we would have a steady state efficiency of 85 per cent. This steady state can only be measured when the boiler is at full load and all the conditions, such as return water temperature, air temperature, air/fuel ration, and so on

The boiler efficiency is usually reduced to 84-85%, when a coal fired boiler is converted to natural gas. The biggest change is due to the combustion of Hydrogen. This is normally a 4% heat loss while firing coal and about a 11% heat loss while firing natural gas. When firing natural gas, other losses such as dry gas loss, moisture in fuel and
