English term

casing losses

English to German Tech/Engineering Engineering: Industrial biomass generator
Biomass Generator Advantages

Our indirect fired system re-uses all of the waste heat from the turbine cycle, therefore halving fuel consumption. The only energy allowed to leave the system is from the flue gases and casing losses. Costs will be reduced for the indirect fired system, as the system is simpler with reduced need for equipment.

By using direct combustion the widest range fuels can be used, Typically MC of around 20-30 is normal, drier fuel gives a reduction in consumption rate, while an increase in MC will require more fuel up to limit of around 60%.

Verlust über die Verkleidung

In boilers and furnaces, these are the (radiant) heat losses via the outer insulation / casing. One does not speak of a housing (Gehäuse).
The better the insulation is, the lower are the losses.

The correct term is \"Abstrahlverluste\" as opposed to \"Abgasverluste\" (flue gas losses)

Austritt aus dem Gehäuse

Ich bin zwar kein Technikfreak, aber ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass das damit gemeint ist.
Peer comment(s):

agree Daniela Giera : Im ganzen Satz dann vielleicht so: "Die einzigen Energieverluste in diesem System können durch die Abgase und durch den Austritt aus dem Gehäuse entstehen."

Gehäuseverluste

In der Link-PDF (Planungshandbuch für ein Blockheizkraftwerk) kommt das Wort auf Seite 7 vor.
