Fuels and Combustion Fuel gases containing hydrocarbons (ie.g. coke oven gas) are not preheated before burning, mainly because The hydrocarbons crack thereby choking and fouling the heat transfer surface by carbon soot It reduces its flame temperature tremendously There are chances of explosion during preheating It reduces its calorific value tremendously The hydrocarbons crack thereby choking and fouling the heat transfer surface by carbon soot It reduces its flame temperature tremendously There are chances of explosion during preheating It reduces its calorific value tremendously ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP

Fuels and Combustion To avoid fire by spontaneous combustion of coal due to its low temperature oxidation, it should be stored in Large heaps with small surface to volume ratio Fine sizes without the presence of any lump Closed space without any ventilation facility Shallow and small piles Large heaps with small surface to volume ratio Fine sizes without the presence of any lump Closed space without any ventilation facility Shallow and small piles ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Fuels and Combustion A coal gasifier opearating at 20 atm. (e.g. Lugri gasifier) as compared to one operating at atmospheric pressure (e.g. Kopper-Totzek or Winkler gasifier) will produce a gas having None of these Higher carbon monoxide content Higher methane content and thus higher calorific value Lower carbon dioxide content None of these Higher carbon monoxide content Higher methane content and thus higher calorific value Lower carbon dioxide content ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
