When speaking about the transfer of any physical property, in general three basic concepts of transport are considered: molecular, advective and convective. The concept of convection is considered a combination of molecular transport and advective transport.
ASME Certificate
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) created the ASME certificates, an internationally recognized certification for professionals in the sectors where standards have to comply with the maximum guarantee of design, manufacturing and quality.
Thermal oil characteristics
Thermal fluid oils are basically used to carry heat from a given location to another, after being preheated by any method able to do it, whether if it is a burner, or resistance, etc. They are also called heat transfer fluids, of thermal transfer or, HTF from English.
P&ID in thermal oil circuits
It is an essential tool, from which will depend largely the correct operation of the installation. On many occasions, this tool also serves to define the scope of supply. So, the battery limits that determine the responsibility and the scope of each company involved (if it is the case).
Classification of boilers by its technology
Boilers or generators are equipments that, by applying heat produced by the combustion of fuel which can be liquid, gaseous or solid, heat water till boiling temperature (in hot water boilers), or over 100ºC (in high pressure hot water boilers), or finally, they can produce a change of state from liquid to gaseous, in steam boilers. In thermal fluid boilers, heating is carried by other heat fluids different from water.
