A furnace is fired with sub bituminous coal with 10.3% moisture, 34% VCM and 7.7% Ash. It is also known to contain 1.2% N and 1.57% S. It’s HHV is 22 MJ/kg. Find its proximate analysis, modified analysis, ultimate analysis, analysis of the VCM and calorific value of the VCM.
Solution :
By difference % Fc = 100 - 34 - 10.3 - 7.7 = 48

The analysis of a coal is reported as follows (wt. %) Moisture 2.8 Volatile Matter 26.8 Fixed Carbon 66.1 Ash 4.3 Carbon 79.8 Hydrogen 5.1 Sulfur 0.8 Oxygen 6.0 Nitrogen 1.2 HHV 34MJ/kg (as received) a) Calculate “dry ash-free” proximate and ultimate analyses b) Determine the ASTM rank of the coal c) Calculate the lower heating value of the coal d) Estimate the calorific or heating value using Dulong formula. What is the percent difference from the measured value?
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...
10.3) A commercial oil-fired furnace is rated at 300,000 kJ/h input and uses No. 2 fuel oil. An atomizing nozzle is used with a pressure of 700 kPa and a flow coefficient of 0.8 (Aeff- 0.8A) Find the fuel flow rate and the diameter of the nozzle. Use the data given in Table 2.7 for the properties of No. 2 fuel oil. TABLE 2.7 Typical Properties of Fuel Oils Fuel Grade No. 6 Very Light Kerosene Distillate ResidualResidua Residual Black...
