ABSTRACT: The flue gas condensation can increase the conversion efficiency of heat plants significantly, particularly for fuels with high water content. The ideal recoverable heat depends on ambient conditions. Therefore the ambient conditions have to be taken into consideration for the determination of the
efficiency of a particular heat plant. Especially for the planning of heat plants an accurate method has t o
be used. For the monitoring of heat plants a simplified method can be used. The procedures for an accurate
as well as for a simplified efficiency determination are described in this paper.
Keywords: Flue gas condensation, heat plant, furnace, efficiency,

To determine the enthalpy of the flue gas and the condensed water accurately, a special Mollier diagram for
flue gas is necessary. This diagram depends on the excess air ratio, the pressure in the condenser and on the
wood composition. The pressure in the condenser
changes the amount of water which the flue gas can carry
as steam. This pressure depends on altitude, on weather
and on differential pressure due to flue gas fans.
Mollier diagrams for flue gas from wood have been calculated by the authors.

Often a quick determination of the efficiency is necessary. Therefore simplified procedures are requested. A
method with an equation and a method with a diagram are
proposed.
4.1 Estimation of the Efficiency with a few Plant
Parameters with a Simplified Model
With the method of cold combustion the same gas enters and leaves the system. Only the temperature and the
amount of liquid water are different. Therefore the losses
of the flue gas and the condensate compared to ambient
conditions are determined.

5 . CONCLUSIONS
The conversion efficiency of heat plants with flue gas
condensation depends strongly on the wood humidity,
on the excess air ratio and on the achievable flue gas
temperature. The flue gas temperature depends on return
temperature and on plant design. However, besides operating conditions and plant technique the impacts of ambient conditions have also to be taken into consideration. Due to these impacts the planning of heat plants
has to take into consideration, e.g. the altitude. Therefore the planning, judgement and the comparison of heat
