Solve problem 7

Problem # 7. A 25,000 sq ft w.t. boiler produces 320,000 Ib per hour steam at 350 psig, 750 °F from feed
at 350 °F. What is the KB rating?
Problem # 8. A simple w.t. boiler of 20,000 sq ft heating surface is offered by a salesman for installation
in a steam plant where 80,000 lb of d and s steam are to be produced at 190 psig from 210 °F feed water.
Using the Bobcock formula verify whether this area is adequate by assuming mass flow 5000 lb per hr per
sq ft, furnace and chimney temperatures of 1800 and 450 °F.
Problem # 11. A 2800 sq ft w.t. boiler is rated at 18,000 lb steam per hour at 100 psig, 0.98 dryness factor.
Feed water, 225 °F. Express the capacity as a) kB, b) bo hp, c) percent rating, d) equivalent evaporation.
Problem # 13. Testing of a stoker-fired boiler revealed that, during a period when 4550 lb of 12,400 Btu
coal were burned, refuse accumulated in the ashpit to the extent of 495 lb, although the coal as fired
contained only 10% ash by analysis. Determine the grate efficiency of this stoker. (No fly ash)
