A bituminous coal is burned with air in a boiler furnace. The coal is fed at a rate of 40000 kg/h and has an ultimate analysis of 76wt% C, 5wt% H, 8wt% O, negligible amounts of N and S, and 11wt% non-combustible ash. Air enters a preheater at 30 °C and 1 atm with a relative humidity of 30%, exchanges heat with the hot flue gas leaving the furnace and air enters the furnace at temperature Ta (°C). The flue...
