A flue gas condenser is a system that helps to increase the effectiveness of boiler plant operations by condensing vapour from flue gases. Flue gas condensers can be used in boiler plants that burn gaseous and liquid fuels as well as biomass. This article analyses the operations of a empty flue gas condenser without package elements in a wood chip fired boiler plant. The study begins with a model of the processes in a flue gas condenser and the selection of constructive parameters. The system was installed in 2010. Data from the industrial experiment were obtained, mathematically processed, and evaluated for uncertainty.
