The image above represents %heat loss from moisture in fuel. To calculate %heat loss from moisture in fuel, five essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Mass of the Moisture in Fuel (m), Specific Heat of Stock (Cp), Flue Gas Temperature (Tfg), Ambient Temperature (Tamb) and Gross Calorific Value of Fuel (GCVf).
The formula for calculating %heat loss from moisture in fuel:
%QL = 100(m(584 + Cp(Tfg – Tamb))/GCVf)
Where:
%QLÂ = %Heat Loss from Moisture in Fuel
m = Mass of the Moisture in Fuel
Cp = Specific Heat of Stock
Tfg = Flue Gas Temperature
Tamb = Ambient Temperature
GCVf = Gross Calorific Value of Fuel
Let’s solve an example;
Find the %heat loss from moisture in fuel when the mass of the moisture in fuel is 8, the specific heat of stock is 4, the flue gas temperature is 2, the ambient temperature is 10 and the gross calorific value of fuel is 6.
This implies that;
m = Mass of the Moisture in Fuel = 8
Cp = Specific Heat of Stock = 4
Tfg = Flue Gas Temperature = 2
Tamb = Ambient Temperature = 10
GCVf = Gross Calorific Value of Fuel = 6
%QL = 100(m(584 + Cp(Tfg – Tamb))/GCVf)
That is, %QLÂ = 100(8(584 + 4(2 – 10))/6)
%QLÂ = 100(8(584 + 4(-8))/6)
%QLÂ = 100(8(584 + -32)/6)
So, %QLÂ = 100(8(552)/6)
%QLÂ = 100(4416/6)
%QL = 100(736)
Finally, %QL = 73600
Therefore, the %heat loss from moisture in fuel is 73600%.
