Heating Theory
Did you know without proper control of boiler water chemistry, corrosion, scale buildup and fouling of boiler tubes can occur which will impact boiler efficiency and may result in tube failures? Boilers are a common device for converting fuel into heat by burning fuels for heating water and generating steam for heating and powering equipment. The two general types of boilers are hot water boilers and steam boilers The water used in boilers has to process the correct chemical makeup to prevent corrosion, scaling and fouling of boiler internal parts. This interactive online course covers the theory of heat transfer. It will cover the three laws of Thermodynamics, methods of heat transfer, how heat is measured and the pressure -temperature relationships in heating systems.
