BURNERS OF DOMESTIC HEATING BOILERS: A MEASUREMENT-BASED ANALYSIS APPROACH AIMING AT QUANTIFYING CORRELATIONS AMONG THE BASIC PARAMETERS OF OPERATION

摘要

This work presents an analysis of the results from a flue-gas measurement program on diesel-oil domestic heating boilers, conducted in a Hellenic urban area, aimed at the quantification of the correlations between the basic parameters affecting the operation of their burners. At first, these basic parameters are described, together with the relevant Hellenic standards. Next, the used sample and its selection methodology are presented, followed by a presentation of the measurements themselves. Finally, the applied analytical approach is shown. The basic part of these results is information on the way in which, and the amount to which, the fact that one or more parameters follow the standards causes other parameters to follow them or not.
