A scotch marine boiler has a furnace volume of 45.5 cu. ft. if 3825.2 cu. ft. of natural gas is burned per hour and each contains 1100 Btu, what is the rate of combustion?
RC = H / (Vf * t)
RC = H / (Vf * t)
RC = (3825.2 * 1100) / (45.5 * 1)
(cu. ft.) RC = 92477.36
Where,
RC rate of combustion (Btu/hr)
H heat released (Btu)
Vf volume of furnace (cu. ft.) t
time (hr)
