3 Description

3.1 Operating principle

3.1.1. Gas/air setting

The casing fitted to the boiler is also used as an air box. Air is sucked in by the fan and gas injected into the venturi by the fan intake. The fan rotation speed is set according to the settings parameters, the thermal energy requirement and the temperatures measured by the temperature sensors. The gas and air are mixed in the venturi. The gas/air ratio ensures that the quantities of gas and air are adjusted to each other. This provides optimum combustion on the entire output range. The gas/air mixture is fed into the burner on top of the exchanger.

3.1.2. Combustion

The burner heats the heating water circulating in the heat exchanger. At a return temperature lower than around 55°C, the flue gases cool down to a temperature lower than the dew point, thus causing the condensation of the water vapour contained in the flue gases in the back side of the heat exchanger. The heat released during this condensation process (the latent heat or condensing heat) is also transferred to the heating water. The cooled combustion gases are evacuated via the combustion gas outlet flue. The condensation water is evacuated via a siphon.
