Exercise-I
Consider combustion of fuel oil with air to heat the furnace to a temperature at  Fuel oil analyses  84% C, 5%H, 2%S and 9% incombustibles. Gross calorific value of fuel oil is 9500 kcal/kg. Determine GAH in each case when the furnace temperature T is a)    b)  C)  and d)  Assume complete combustion with the theoretical amount of air.

Solution

Basis of calculation is 1 kg fuel. Reference state of  in POC is liquid and the reference temperature is
