Question: A coal from Pennsylvania has an ultimate analysis (by mass) as 84.36 percent C, 1.89 percent H2, 4.40 percent O2, 0.63 percent N2, 0.89 percent
A coal from Pennsylvania has an ultimate analysis (by mass) as 84.36 percent C, 1.89 percent H2, 4.40 percent O2, 0.63 percent N2, 0.89 percent S, and 7.83 percent ash (non-combustibles) is burned in an industrial boiler with 100 percent excess air. This combustion is incomplete with 3 percent (by volume) of the carbon in the products forming carbon monoxide. What is the impact of the incomplete combustion on the adiabatic flame temperature, in oC, as compared to when the combustion is complete? Neglect the effect of the sulfur on the energy balance.
