Abstract
Condensing gas boiler units may make a big role for the reduction of energy consumption in heating industries. In order to decrease the energy consumption of a condensing gas boiler unit, effective operations of the system are necessary. In this study, mathematical models of a condensing gas boiler system were developed in order to develop control algorithms of the system. These include dynamic models of a blower, a gas valve, a pump, a burner, a boiler heat exchanger, and a hot water heat exchanger. Control algorithms of a blower, a gas valve, and a pump were also assumed. Simulation results showed good predictions of dynamic behaviors of a boiler system. Therefore, the simulation program developed for this study may be effectively used for the development of control algorithms of a boiler system.
