Sounds like it's overheating, and the pressure relief valve could be releasing the excess pressure to outside.

Have you noticed the Pressure relief discharge pipe releasing any water ?

Is the boiler auto-air vent open, all radiators heat to the top ?(no air in system)

Get a heating engineer out to repair. Could be a faulty thermostat or sensor.
