Abstract

A boiler is one of the most significant components in a steam power plant system, as steam from the boiler is used to crank a steam turbine, which drives an electric generator. A sootblower is a piece of boiler equipment that cleans the ash and scale that has built up on the pipes. The heat-transfer pipes have been reduced. When soot builds up on the pipes or the riser on the boiler’s walls, heat transfer is impeded, resulting in less heat transfer. The amount of steam produced by the boiler will decrease if the heat transfer is lowered. Heat transfer is small in superheaters, reheaters, economizers, and air heaters, as well as in heat recovery regions like superheaters, reheaters, economizers, and air heaters. as well as the pipes for the superheater, reheater, economizer, and air heater As a result, the main objective of the sootblower is to analyze it so that lost energy in the boiler can be reduced. It also enhances the boiler’s efficiency once the sootblower has been employed.
