An industry is proposing to construct a new coal-fired power plant that produces 2300 MW electricity with efficiency of 39%. Coal has a heating value of 10,750 Btu/lb, and contains a sulfur content of 2.4%. It is expected that 95% of sulfur will be converted to SO2. The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) limits the SO2 emission rate from any coal-fired power plants to 1.2 lb/ 106 Btu heat input. a) Determine coal consumption in lb/ hr b) Determine SO2...

A typical coal-fired power plant burns 320 metric tons of coal every hour to generate 2.6×106 MJ of electricity. 1 metric ton = 1000 kg; 1 metric ton of coal has a volume of 1.5 m3. The heat of combustion is 28 MJ/kg. Assume that all heat is transferred from the fuel to the boiler and that all the work done in spinning the turbine is transformed into electrical energy. 1. Suppose the coal is piled up in a 10...

A typical coal-fired power plant burns 270 metric tons of coal every hour to generate 2.9x10^6 MJ of electricity. 1 metric ton= 1000 kg; 1 metric ton of coal has a volume of 1.5m^3. The heat combustion is 28 MJ/kg. Assume that all heat is transferred from the fuel to the boiler and that all the work done in spinning the turbine is transformed into electrical energy. a) Suppose the coal is piled up in a 10m x 11m room....

A typical coal-fired power plant burns 310 metric tons of coal every hour to generate 2.8×106 MJ of electricity. 1 metric ton = 1000 kg; 1 metric ton of coal has a volume of 1.5 m^3. The heat of combustion is 28 MJ/kg. Assume that all heat is transferred from the fuel to the boiler and that all the work done in spinning the turbine is transformed into electrical energy. (A) Suppose the coal is piled up in a 12...

A typical coal-fired power plant burns 290 metric tons of coal every hour to generate 800 MW of electricity. 1 metric ton= 1000 kg. The density of coal is 1500 kg/m3 and its heat of combustion is 28 MJ/kg. Assume that all heat is transferred from the fuel to the boiler and that all the work done in spinning the turbine is transformed into electrical energy. Part A)Suppose the coal is piled up in a 8.0 m × 11 m...

Please answer Questions e-f-g-h: (a) The boiler of a power plant operates at a maximum temperature of 750oC. The condenser of the power plant draws in cooling water at 20oC. What is the theoretical maximum efficiency of the plant? (b) Now suppose that a real power plant is built to have an efficiency that is 80% of the theoretical efficiency. The power plant needs to generate 1GW (giga-watt) of power. How much energy (per second) needs to be supplied by...
