FUEL CONSUMPTION FOR THE ATTACHMENTS OF STEAM GENERATOR INSTALLATIONS OF TECHNOLOGICAL TRANSPORT

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis and specification of fuel consumption for the operation of the attachment of steam-generating instalations of the PPUA type, which actuate the steam boiler that produces the steam-water mixture. It is performed the analysis of information sources on fuel consumption for the operation of the heat generator and unreasonable overspending. There were described disadvantages in calculating fuel consumption per hour of operation of the steam-generating installation. Based on the analysis of normative data on fuel consumption accounting per hour of operation, a calculation model was proposed to calculate the actual fuel consumption for the work performed on the preparation of the steam- water mixture in different modes of operation of the installation. During the calculation, it was proposed to calculate the power losses of the internal combustion engine to drive the attachment during their operation in different modes of preparation of the steam-water mixture.

The main purpose is to determine the power loss of the internal combustion engine for each device that ensures the operation of the heat generator and the total power lost, find the amount of fuel to perform the steam-water mixture in the selected mode of operation. Knowing the total power loss and specific fuel consumption for a given engine, it is possible to determine the actual fuel consumption in the selected mode of operation of the steam generator.

The proposed will allow operators to get rid of unreasonable fuel costs to obtain a steam-water mixture with the necessary parameters for performance, pressure and temperature.
