• Q = m x Cp x △T
= 6.000 x 0,12 x (1.340-40)
= 93.600 kCal/hr
• The heat input is 400 liters per hour. The specific gravity of
fuel is used to convert this into kg. Therefore: 400 l/hr x
0.92 kg/l = 368 kg/hr
• How much heat in the fuel?
368 kg/hr x calorific value
368 xkg/hr x 10.000 kCal/kg
3680000 kCal/kg
• Efficiency = 93.600/3.680.000 = 0,2543 (25,43%)
• Heat loss???
Indirect method
Figure A
Heat loss in flue gass
• m = weight of flue gas (air + fuel) = 32.62 + 1.0 = 33.62 kg/kg oil

Heat loss through furnace skin
• To determine the heat loss through the
furnace skin, first the heat loss through the
roof and sidewalls and through other areas
must be calculated separately.
– i). Heat loss through roof/ceiling and sidewalls (=
heating and soaking zone)
– ii) Heat lost from area other than heating and
soaking zone
Heat loss through roof/ceiling and
sidewalls (= heating and soaking zone)
• Total average
surface
temperature =
122oC
• Heat loss at
122oC = 1252
kCal /m2 hr
• Total area of
heating +
soaking zone =
70.18 m2
Calculation
• Total heat loss = heat loss at “n” temperature
x Total area of (heating +soaking zone)
• Total heat loss = 1252 kCal / m2 hr x 70.18 m2 =
87865 kCal/hr
Heat lost from area other than heating
and soaking zone
• Total heat loss = heat loss at “n” temperature
x Total area other than heating and soaking
zone
• Total average surface temperature = 80 oC
• Heat loss at 80oC = 740 kCal / m2 hr
• Total area = 12.6 m2
Calculation
• Total heat loss = 740 kCal / m2 hr x 12.6 m2 = 9324
