Question
2.52 kg of coal per second are consumed by a steam boiler plant and
produced 18.54 kg of dry flue gas per kg of coal fired. The air temperature
outside is 32°C, the average temperature of the flue gases entering the
chimney is 343°C and the average temperature of the flue gases in the
chimney is 260°C. The gage fluid specific volume is 1.005e-3 m3/kg and a
theoretical draft of 2.286 cm of water at the chimney base is needed
when the barometric pressure is 101.3 kPa. Find the diameter of the
chimney in meters.
