How many grades of fuel oil are normally considered as heating oils?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The grade of fuel oil consider as heating oils.

Explanation of Solution

Fuel oil is the other term used for fossil fuels, natural gas etc. Fuel oil can be considered as the combination of liquid hydrocarbons having chemical combinations of hydrogen and carbon. Some fuels have heavy hydrocarbon and some have very light hydrocarbons.

Fuel has many applications as in transportation, electricity generation, heating systems, cooking etc. Fuel oil is produced from the crude oil which is mined from the ground by the help of distillation.

There are generally six grades of fuel based on their weigh per gallon. The grades are identified by the numbers from 1 to 6. 1 is designated to the fuel which has less weight per gallon and it is considered as light fuel. The weight of fuel is defined by its carbon content. Light fuels have low carbon content.

The question has been set up with all the cuts needed to accurately derive expressions for V(x) and M(x). Using the cuts free body diagrams set up below, derive expressions for V(x) and M(x). If you use the method of cuts then validate your answers using calculus or vice versa.
It is required to treat 130 kmol/hr of chloroform-air feed gas mixture that contains 12% chloroform. It is required to remove 93% of chloroform using 150 kmol/hr of solvent that contains 99.6% water and 0.4% chloroform. The cross sectional area of the column is 0.8 m². Calculate the column height using the following data; kx'.a = 1.35 (kmol/m³.s (Ax)), and ky'.a = 0.06 (kmol/m³.s (Ay)), kx/ky = 1.35, and the equilibrium data are: X 0 0.0133 0.033 y 0 0.01 0.0266 0.049 0.064 0.0747 0.0933 0.1053 0.0433 0.06 0.0733 0.111 0.1 0.12 0.14
