A boiler is supplied with 15, 900 kg of feed water at1 5°C, during a trial period of 8 hours and 20 minutes. At the end of the trial, the weight of water was 680 kg less than that of commencement of trial. The steam produced at the pressure of 12. 5 bar is 95% dry. The coal having the calorific value of 30,000 kJ/kg is fired at the rate of 275.8 kg/h. Calculate (a) actual evaporation rate, (b) equivalent evaporation, and (c) thermal efficiency of the boiler.

A coal-fired boiler is used to supply 18 000 kg/hr of steam at 12.5 bar with a dryness fraction of 0.97 to a dyehouse. Feedwater temperature is 105 °C with coal supplied at 2 040 kg per hour to the combustion chamber. Assuming the calorific value of coal to be 27.4 MJ / kg and the specific heat capacity of feedwater to be 4.18 kJ/kg K , determine: the heat rate in kJ/hr the thermal efficiency of the boiler Complaints are received from the neighbourhood about the deposit of fly-ash and particulate matter on houses and buildings.
