A typical electric boiler will work by heating the water that runs through it with a heating element and this hot water is then pumped to where it is needed. Thanks to the way they heat water, electric boilers are considered one of the least wasteful options as there is extremely minimal heat loss like there is with a gas boiler.

The single-retort, underfeed-type bituminous coal stoker is the most commonly used domestic automatic-stoking steam or hot-water boiler Figure 12.7. The stoker consists of a coal hopper, a screw for conveying coal from hopper to retort, a fan that supplies air for combustion, a transmission for driving coal feed and fan, and an electric motor

A typical burner is usually set up with 10-20% excess air (2-4% O2). NOx controls that require higher excess air levels can result in fuel being used to heat the air rather than transferring it to usable energy. Thus, increased stack losses and reduced boiler efficiency occur.

10: It is the best coal and wood boiler because it has a nice big forced-air blower (75 CFM) in the back, to feed oxygen up through the grates, just like a blacksmith's forge! Absolutely necessary for COAL and the best for wood! You get a real nice hot fire so that there are no unburned pieces of wood or coal left over (like on a Central Boiler)

Heat pump vs boiler round 1 – Efficiency. The efficiency of a home heating system is essentially how much of the energy supply is converted into useful heat energy. Historically, old boilers are considered 50 – 75% efficient, which means that a half to a quarter of the energy supplied to the boiler was wasted.

The boiler efficiency of modern pulverized fuel, hard coal-fired units is 94%–95% (LHV basis), reducing slightly to 90%–91% for lignite-fired units due to the higher moisture content. When combined with the other elements of the Rankine cycle, the overall efficiency currently achievable in conventional plants is in the 40%–45% range.
