a boiler plant generates 5000kg/hr of steam at 3000kPa and enthalpy of 2995k/kg. The water entering the plant has a temperature of 12°C. At exit from the economizer the temperature of the water is 85°C. The enthalpy at exit from the evaporator is 2533kJ/kg and the fuel used has a calorific value of 32MJ/kg. Neglect the combustion losses and take the thermal efficiency of the plant to be 80%. Determine: 1.1the final temperature of the steam;the heat absorbed in each component of the plant in kJ/kg fuel. 1.2 The heat absorbed in each component  of the plant in KJ/kg

QUESTION 3

a boiler plant generates 5000kg/hr of steam at 3000kPa and enthalpy of 2995k/kg. The water entering the plant has a temperature of 12°C. At exit from the economizer the temperature of the water is 85°C. The enthalpy at exit from the evaporator is 2533kJ/kg and the fuel used has a calorific value of 32MJ/kg. Neglect the combustion losses and take the thermal efficiency of the plant to be 80%. Determine:

1.1the final temperature of the steam;the heat absorbed in each component of the plant in kJ/kg fuel.

1.2 The heat absorbed in each component  of the plant in KJ/kg
