Fired Heater Design
Design of fired heaters is complex and best left to specialists. But there are times when a rapid preliminary estimate is required, and it is then that the website HEATERDESIGN comes to the rescue. It not only provides a nice overview of the thermal and mechanical design considerations of a fired heater but also comes loaded with nifty online calculators. Though the expressed purpose of the website is educational and it comes with a clear warning that the methods presented may or may not be suitable for actual design, this does not take away the utility of the online calculators for:
Flue Gas Composition and Properties
Tube Wall Temperature
Heat Loss
Flame Temperature
Acid Dew Point of Flue Gas
Pressure Loss in Ducts
Stack Draft
......and much more

Sir,
Please let me know do have any thumbs rule or the general guidelines for coil steam injection in vacuum fired heaters. My concern is that post-revamp my heater coils are getting replaced due to the lower tube side velocity so could I retain my existing heater coils with an increased steam flow in. My vacuum ovhd ejector steam is capable of taking an increased steam load. my mail id padmakarkatre@gmail.com
SIr I am Designing a fired heater as my Finall tear Mechanical engineering project. I want to ask two things:
1. How to determine furnace size that is lenht, width and height of furnace? i am designing box type double cabin furnace
2. Regarding tube material selection where should I start?
