Fuels and Combustion
Initial pressure of oxygen introduced into the 'bomb' of the bomb calorimeter for determination of calorific value of coal/fuel oil may be around __________ atm.
It is abrasive to the coal pulveriser (ie.g. ball mill) and the combustion chamber
The ash in molten condition gets absorbed in the pores of the refractory lining of the furnace and causes its spalling due to different co-efficient of expansion/contraction of the refractory and the
The ash retains the sulphur & phosphorus and thus affects the quality of products in metallurgical furnace apart from increasing the slag volume. Besides, it may fuse and stick to the boiler tubes
