Boiler Efficiency

This document provides formulas and information for determining fuel consumption, boiler efficiency, and exhaust gas measurements in steam generation. It includes equations that calculate fuel consumption based on steam output and conditions, boiler efficiency based on steam output and fuel properties, and boiler efficiency based on exhaust gas temperature and composition measurements. Tables provide steam properties at different pressures and non-combustible values of coal at varying pressures.

If the value for steam output cannot be established, it can be calculated using the following: mD mSpw mAbs = mSpw - mAbs w
