Improved boiler efficiency and reliability

Valmet DNA Boiler Performance Monitoring

The Valmet DNA Boiler Performance Monitoring application provides power plant personnel with valuable information about boiler performance, condition and operating efficiency – both in real time and retrospectively. With continuous monitoring of main boiler parameters, the solution helps greatly reduce fuel costs and assures undisturbed operation.

Real-time boiler efficiency calculations using direct or indirect efficiency methods

Effective detection and analysis of potential or existing issues in boiler operation

Improved maintenance planning with long-term monitoring of component deterioration

Smooth communication between plant management and control

Proactive approach to failure prevention in boiler operation

The Valmet DNA Boiler Performance Monitoring application calculates, displays and stores the main boiler parameters. These include boiler efficiency calculations based on boiler mass and heat balance and built in accordance with EN 12952 or ASME PTC 4 standards. The method used for calculations is either input-output or heat loss, depending on the fuel type burned.

In addition, the solution helps power plant maintenance and operating personnel detect potential problems in boiler operation and analyze those that have occurred. This prevents failures proactively – before they cause unpredicted shutdowns.

Extensive storage of history data enables long-term reporting and trending of performance parameters, thus helping detect gradual changes in boiler performance and improve maintenance planning.
