Direct Fired Hot Air Generators

A direct-fired hot air generator is an industrial heating system that produces hot air by directly exposing the air to a flame or combustion process. In contrast to indirect-fired systems, where the combustion products do not come into direct contact with the air being heated, direct-fired generators introduce the combustion gases into the air stream, resulting in the direct transfer of heat.

Here are the key components and principles of a direct-fired hot air generator:

1. Combustion Chamber:

The combustion chamber is where the fuel (commonly natural gas, propane, diesel, or other liquid or gaseous fuels) is burned to produce a flame and combustion products.

2. Burner:

The burner is responsible for igniting and sustaining the combustion process. It releases hot gases and flames into the combustion chamber.

3. Heat Exchange Section:

In a direct-fired system, the heat exchange occurs directly between the hot combustion gases and the air to be heated. This can be achieved through the use of coils, tubes, or other heat exchange surfaces immersed in the combustion chamber.

4. Air Circulation System:

A fan or blower circulates air over the heat exchange surfaces, allowing the air to absorb heat directly from the combustion gases.

5. Temperature Control:

Direct-fired hot air generators often include controls to regulate the fuel flow and maintain a consistent air temperature based on the requirements of the industrial process.
