Heater operation
1. 1. SAFETY TALK FIRED HEATERS M.C JOMON 1
2. 2. Kochi Refinery HEATER Heater is used to raise the temperature of a process fluid from lower temperature to higher temperature. Services in
Refinery • Fractionation: Crude, Vacuum, Reboilers. • Thermal cracking: DCU , Visbreaker, Hydrocracker. • Catalytic cracking: Reformer, CCR. •
Reaction: Hydrotreater 2
3. 3. Kochi Refinery HEATER 3
4. 4. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Vertical tube cylindrical heater • Most common type refinery heaters. • Vertical radiant tubes and horizontal
convection tubes. • Smallest plot area required. • Tubes expand vertically. • Less number of tube supports. One at top and one guide at the bottom for
each tube. • Not preferably used for highly vaporizing services. • Heat duty up to 40 MM K cal/hr. 4
5. 5. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Horizontal box type [ single shell/ twin shell ] • Heat duty from 20-125 MM Kcal/hr. • Horizontal
radiant/convection tubes. • Requires large plot area. • Choice of having heater outlet at the radiant section bottom or top. • Large number of tube
supports required. • 20-25% costlier than vertical heater. • Used in crude vacuum coker heaters. 5
6. 6. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Arbor or wicket type heater [for very low pressure drop [ .2-.3 kg/cm2] • Tubes are like inverted U shape. • All
vapour flow. Non coking services. • Low pressure heaters. • Heat duties of 17.5-100 MM Kcal/hr. eg. CCR , • Bottom manifold. • Free draining. •
Can be combination firing because of bottom firing. 6
7. 7. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Inverted wicket type • Horizontal firing. • Single or double firing. • In situ hydro testing not possible. • Eg. CCR
7
8. 8. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Helical coil heater small heat duties up to 15 mm kcal/hr. Not used in refineries. 8
9. 9. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Classification based on firing. • Side fired -One side / both side. • Bottom fired • Top fired. • Side fired Bottom
fired Top fired 9
10. 10. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Classification based on fuel • Gas firing • Oil firing • Combination firing Gas firing Oil firing Oil + Gas firing
10
11. 11. Kochi Refinery HEATER Types Classification based on Draft • Natural Draft- • Forced Draft - using F.D fan • Induced Draft – using I.D fan
and drop out doors. • Balanced Draft – using F.D and I.D fans. 11
12. 12. Kochi Refinery HEATER Draft Draft is the difference in pressure which causes the flow of air into the furnace and flue gases through the heater.
The pressure differential is caused by the difference in densities of the flue gas in the heater and stack and the air surrounding the furnace. • Positive
draft means flue gas pressure is below ambient pressure. • Negative draft means fluid pressure is above ambient pressure at the same elevation. • Draft
is controlled by stack damper or by ID fan. • Ideal draft in a natural draft furnace is -1 mm wc. 12
13. 13. Kochi Refinery HEATER Impact of higher draft • Taller flame • Flame lift –off • High air flow through burners[ in natural draft burners only] •
Air leakages thru joints of heater body/ explosion door/peepholes. • Excess air more. Impact of lower draft • Damaging heater structure. • Flame or
hot air leakage to atmosphere • Low air flow through burners , low excess air [ in natural draft] • Pressurization of heater. 13
14. 14. Kochi Refinery HEATER Complete Combustion • Complete combustion occurs when 100% of the energy in the fuel is extracted There must be
enough air in the combustion chamber for complete combustion to occur. • The combustion process is extremely dependent on time, temperature, and
turbulence. Excess Air • In order to ensure complete combustion, combustion chambers are Fired with excess air. • Excess air increases the amount of
oxygen and nitrogen entering the flame increasing the probability that oxygen will find and react with the fuel. [ Nox formation ] • Addition of excess
air greatly lowers the formation of CO. 14
15. 15. Kochi Refinery HEATER Excess Air = 100 x (20.9%) / (20.9% -O2m%) - 100% Where O2 m% = The measured value of oxygen in the
exhaust. Examples: When O2m% = 5% Then: excess air = 100 x (20.9%) / (20.9%-5%) - 100% = 100 x (20.9%) / (15.9%) - 100% = 100 x (1.31)
- 100% excess air = 31% 15
16. 16. Kochi Refinery HEATER sections • Convection section. • Radiant section • Header box: internally insulated structural compartment separated
from the flue gas stream which is used to enclose a number of headers or manifolds. • Stack 16
17. 17. Kochi Refinery HEATER sections Convection section • Bare tubes at the bottom of the convection section shields the studded tubes from direct
radiation. • Normally 3 rows. Absorbs remaining 40-20% of total duty. • Core bells to prevent flue gas by passing around tubes. • May have
additional waste heat recovery coils or super heating coils for efficiency improvement. • Soot blowing area. 17
18. 18. Kochi Refinery HEATER sections Radiant section • Absorbs 60-80% of total duty. • Radiation contribution -90% • Tubes are in Vertical or
Horizontal. 18
19. 19. Kochi Refinery HEATER Parts/ terminology • Bridge wall : Wall separating two adjacent heater zones. • Arch: Flat or sloped portion of the
radiant section opposite the floor. • Damper: A device for regulating the flow of air or flue gas. • Pilot : Small burner that provides the ignition source
for the mail burner • Atomizer : Device used to reduce a liquid fuel to fine mist using steam. • Breeching: Heater section that where the flue gases are
collected after the last convection coil for transmission to the stack or the outlet duct. • Jump over: Inter connecting pipe work within a heater coil
section. 19
20. 20. Kochi Refinery HEATER Parts / terminology • Louver damper: Damper consists of several blades [ Combustion air Control] • Corbel :

conduit for air or flue gas • Anchor / Tieback/ Jagger : a metallic or refractory material that holds refractory or insulation. • Ceramic wool / Refractory
bricks : Insulators • SOB : Shut off Blind./guillotine blind : single blade isolation of air ducts in a heater , like blind. 20
21. 21. Kochi Refinery HEATER Parts / terminology • Pass: flow streams: Flow circuits consisting of one or more tubes in parallel. • Plenum wind box:
Chamber surrounding the burner that is used to distribute air to the burners or reduce combustion noise. • Primary air: Portion of the total air that first
mixes with fuel. • Setting loss: Radiation loss: heat lost to the surroundings from the casing of the heater and the ducts and auxiliary equipment's. •
Secondary air: Air supplied to the fuel to supplement primary air. • Shield section/ shock section: Tubes that shield the remaining convection section
tubes from direct radiation. • Target wall/ reradiating wall: Vertical refractory brick which is exposed to direct flame impingement on one or both
sides.- mainly in DCU heaters. 21
22. 22. Kochi Refinery HEATER Parts terminology • Tube guide: Device used with vertical tubes to restrict horizontal movement while allowing the
tube to expand horizontally while firing. • Tube supports: Device used to support tubes. • Tube retainer: Device used to retain horizontal radiant tubes
from lifting off the intermediate tube supports during operation • Vapour barrier: Metallic foil placed between layers of refractory as a barrier to flue
gas flow. • Soot blower: device used to remove soot or deposits. • Strake/spoiler: metal attachment to a stack that prevent the formation of vortices
that can cause wind induced vibration. 22
23. 23. Kochi Refinery HEATER TUBES • Bare Tubes. • Tubes with extended surface. • Fins • Studs • Segmented fins Bare tubes Studded tubes Fins
Segmented fins 23
24. 24. Kochi Refinery HEATER Tubes with extended surface Solid fins. • Most commonly used in gas firing heaters. • Soot deposit chance is more. •

Rarely used in refinery. 24
25. 25. Kochi Refinery HEATER Tubes with extended surface Studded tubes • Used for oil firing /combination firing case. • Easier to clean. • Strong. •
Costlier than fins. 25
26. 26. Kochi Refinery HEATER TUBES • Horizontal tubes –maximum 25m due to construction /handling problems. • Vertical tubes- maxi. 18m due
to limit large variation in the longitudinal heat flux distribution. • Convection area -Normally all tubes are horizontally. 26

excess air in primary tip reduces flame temperature. • Low O2 in secondary tip results in longer combustion time 32mcj
33. 33. HEATER BURNERS Staged Air Burner • Low Nox burner - [50-70 ppm vd] • More effective with combination firing. • Air is split into 2-3
zones to slow the combustion • Primary air to initiate combustion. • Secondary air to complete the combustion and maintain flame shape. • Tertiary
air to control the flame outer temperature. 33mcj
34. 34. HEATER BURNERS Flue Gas Recirculation Burner • Ultra Nox burner [ 25- 30 ppm] • A part of flue gas is circulated back into the flame to
dilute air/fuel mixture. • Delayed combustion as well as cooler flame. • Very large spacing required between burners And burners are bigger in size. •
