Question

Data from a test on a NAPOCOR boiler, using pulverized coal, are as follows:

Proximate Analysis of Coal Ultimate Analysis of Coal
W = 2.80 % C = 84.36 %  N = 0.63 %
VCM = 1.16 % H = 1.89 % S = 0.89 %
FC = 88.21 % O = 4.40 % A = 7.83 %

The coal rate is 11762 kg/hr and the excess air required is 35 %. Determine:

  •  the “as fired” coal analysis, and the “dry” coal analysis
  •  the actual air required per hour.
