What are the NCV and GCV?

A sample of coal: 92% C, 5% H and 3% ash. Find the GCV and NCV if the fuel is tested in the
bomb calorimeter.
Wt of the coal burned -0.95 g
Wt of the water=700 g
fuse wire correction =10 cal
acid correction 60 cal
Rise in the T=2.48 ° C
mass in kg, energy kcal
Cooling correction 0.02° C
GCV = W.tW (AT +cooling correction) - (acid and fuse correction)/mass of the coal
