Hi Guys,
It is known that the boiler pressure reading on the main header is 8 bar, the boiler feed water temp is 30oC, the use of coal as boiler fuel (1 kg coal = 6300 Kcal) for 24 days is 45000 kg. Steam flows from the main header to the branch header in the production line and the total steam flowmeter reading at the branch header is 38788 kg for 24 days with a pressure reading on the branch header is 7.5 bar.

If the use of boiler feed water is 7000 liters/day, how to calculate:

1. Total steam usage per day in Kcal?
2. The amount of coal used per day in Kcal?
3. The amount of steam usage at the header branch in Kcal?

Need advise when we used feed water supply as a parameter!

Regards,
charls
