1. Boiler. Steam at 40 bar, 350°C, is generated in a boiler at the rate of 50,000 kg/h from feed water at 130°C. The fuel has a calorific value of 45 MJ/kg and the daily consumption is 80 tons. Calculate (a) the boiler capacity of the boiler in kg/h from and at 100 C, and (b) the equivalent evaporation per kg of fuel from and at 100°C, and(c) the boiler efficiency, in %.
