Question
4. A coal analyzing 65.4% C, 5.3% H, 0.6% S, 1.1% N, 18.5% O, and 9.1% ash is burned so that all combustible is burnt out of the ash. The flue gas analyzes 13.00% CO,, 0.76% CO, 6.17% O,, 0.87% H2, and 79.20% N2. All of the sulfur burns to SO2, which is in- cluded in the CO, in the gas analysis (i.e., CO, + SO, = 13.00%). Calculate: a. Pounds of coal fired per 100 lb mol of dry flue gas as analyzed; b. Ratio of moles of total combustion gases to moles of dry air supplied; c. Total moles of water vapor in the stack gas per 100 lb of coal if the entering air is dry; d. Percent excess air.
