Question: ( b ) The plat uses a 1 0 TPH boiler to produce steam at a gauge pressure of 1 2 k g c m

(b) The plat uses a 10 TPH boiler to produce steam at a gauge pressure of 12kgcm2 and uses the above grade of coal. The enthal py of the enthalpy of saturated steam is 680kCalkg at 10kgcm2 pressure and the feed water enthalpy is 100kCalkg at 80C. The coal consumption rate is 4 TPH.(use the conversion: 1J-0.239Cal ). Evaluate the boiler efficiency using the Direct Method.

(c) Evaluate the loss due to dry flue gas if the mass of dry flue gas (Cp=0.23kCalkg2C) is 6kgkg of fuel and the average flue gas temperature and ambient temperature are 200C and 30C respectively.
(d) Also evaluate the heat loss due to moisture present in the fuel if the weight ratio of moisture in the fuel is 0.3kgkg of fuel.
