Fuels and Combustion
Correct viscosity of furnace oil at the burner tip for proper atomisation is about 25 centistokes. To reduce the viscosity of high viscosity furnace oil (250 centistokes) to the correct atomisation viscosity (i.e. 25 cst), it should be preheated to about____°C.
Controlling the dust nuisance while charging the coal
Reducing the cracking of hydrocarbons in the gas and increasing the percentage of CO & H₂ in the gas (due to the endothermic reaction represented by C + H₂O = CO + H₂)
