Scilab - Boiler Efficiency Indirect Method

This document contains code for calculating boiler efficiency indirectly using data from a thermal power plant laboratory report. It includes calculations for dry gas losses, losses due to combustible matter in ash, sensible heat losses in ash, radiation losses, and losses due to moisture and hydrogen in fuel. The code prompts the user to input various parameter values and calculates the total losses and boiler efficiency.
