DUCTS & DAMPERS
Duct is a closed path for the flow of cold air , hot air
and gases from one point to another point in a
system . This can be of any shape like Circular ,Elbow
, Straight , Square, Rectangular or some other shape.
There are eleven duct systems in Boiler :
1 . Cold air duct - FD fan to air heater.
- PA fan to air heater.
2 . Tempering Air system .

TYPE OF SUPPORTS IN DUCT
1 * TOP SUPPORT
a . Hanger support .
2 * BOTTOM SUPPORT
a . Fixed Type .
b . Sliding Type .
Normally hot air ducts will be provided with sliding bottom
supporting .
HANGER SUPPORTS:
a . Fixed hanger supports :
Where the downward movement of the duct need not be
allowed .
03/27/2021 Gyanendra Sharma, NPTI Delhi
b . Spring hanger supports:
Duct is allowed to move in the down ward direction .
* Variable load hangers ( VLH ) .
Used where the difference between the cold loads and hot loads
is very small .
* Constant load hangers ( CLH ) .
Used where the difference between the cold loads and hot loads
is very large .
3 * RESTRAINTS : (STOPS & TIES )
Used to take the horizontal loads on the ducts like
1 . Wind loads
2 . Seismic loads
3 . Expansion joint loads &
4 . Unbalanced pressure loads .
SHEAR TIES & PIN TIES :
These are used to support the toggle section inside the duct itself .
