Features: This book is a recommended textbook for the "Boilers and Boiler House Equipment" course in the original Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Gas Engineering program at colleges and universities. It is revised based on the third edition published in 1995. The book focuses on heating boilers (industrial boilers) and systematically elaborates on the fundamental theories and design calculation methods of boilers. It emphasizes the practical aspects of China's boiler industry and reflects the latest advancements and achievements in domestic and international boiler technology in a timely manner. During the revision, the original features and framework structure were maintained, but the content was significantly expanded, updated, and revised, highlighting environmental protection and energy conservation. New additions include the characteristics of liquid and gaseous fuels, combustion calculations, combustion equipment, and oil and gas boilers. The section on "Flue Gas Purification" has been rewritten, a new chapter on "Waste Heat Boilers" has been added, and national standards, regulations, and codes related to boilers have been updated and implemented. Additionally, review questions and exercises (with reference answers) are included in each chapter. The book also provides two engineering case studies of operational oil and gas boiler house process designs. This book can also serve as a reference for faculty, students, and engineering professionals in related fields.
