Unit 6 Fuels Engineering Chemistry (revised edition) ISBN: 978-81-265-4475-2 Copyright©2014 Wiley India Pvt. Ltd. All Rights Introduction A fuel is defined as any substance used to produce heat or power by combustion. Any chemical process accompanied by the evolution of light and heat is called combustion. It is also a exothermal oxidation process. It is simply the reaction of substances with oxygen and converts chemical Characteristics of a Good Fuel 1.It should ignite easily. The temperature of the fuel at which ignition starts and continues to burn without further addition of heat is called ignition temperature. It should be moderate for a good fuel. Very low ignition temperature leads to fire hazard and very high ignition temperature disfavours the starting of fire. 1.It should give out a lot of heat, that is, its specific heat should be high. 2.It should have low smoke and combustible matter such as ash. It should not give out harmful combustion products. This property depends on the nature of elements present in the fuel. Characteristics of a Good Fuel 4. It should be inexpensive and readily available. 5. It should be easy to store and transport. 6. It should have low ash content. Ash reduces the calorific value of the fuel, causes hindrance to the flow of air and heat, reduces the specific heat and leads to unwanted disposable problems. Calorific Value The amount of heat obtained from the fuel is called its calorific value, it is expressed in : Units 1.Mean British Thermal Unit (BTU) 2.Calorie (cal) 1 BTU= 252 cal 1 cal/g= 1.8 BTU/lb Gross and Net Calorific Values 1.Higher calorific value (HCV) or gross calorific value 2.Lower calorific value (LCV) or net calorific value 1. Higher calorific value (HCV) or Gross calorific value Total amount of heat liberated when one unit of fuel is burnt completely Hydrogen is present in all fuels and when calorific value determined, hydrogen is converted into steam When product of combustion is cooled at room temperature, the latent heat of steam is also included in measurement of heat. The total heat calculated in this way is called HCV HCV> LCV or Gross> Net latent heat 2. Lower calorific value (LCV) or Net calorific value Water vapors escapes along with hot combustion gases, so it is not condensed. As a result less amount of heat available, the amount of available heat is called LCV Determination of Calorific Value Theoretically Determination Q. Calculate the LCV of a fuel which has 8% H and HCV as 6500 cal/gm. Given latent heat of steam 587 cal/gm Bomb calorimeter Experimentally Determination Bomb calorimeter 1.For calorific values of solid and liquid fuels 2.Known amount of fuel is burnt at constant volume 3.Temperature of surrounding water increases as heat is produced. 4.Quantity of heat and calorific values are calculated.

S = specific heat of water, T2 = final temp, T1 =initial temp, x = weight of fuel. On burning 0.83 gm of coal, the temperature of 3500 gm water increased from 25.5 0C to 29.2 0C. Water equivalent is 385 gm. Latent heat = 587 cal/gm Calculate the gross and net calorific value. [H % = 0.7%] Gross calorific value = (W+w)(T2-T1)/X Ans = 17318.68 cal/ gm = 17.31868 kcal/ g Solid Fuels – Coal Formed from dead plants buried for several million years.

All Rights Proximate Analyses of Coal It includes the determination of moisture content, volatile matter, ash and fixed carbon. In this analysis, the data varies with the procedure adopted for study. The content of moisture, volatile matter and ash are experimentally determined, while that of fixed carbon is calculated. Proximate Analysis 1.Moisture content: Lesser the moisture content, better is the quality of coal. Engineering Chemistry (revised edition) ISBN: 978-81-265-4475-2 Copyright©2014 Wiley India Pvt. Ltd. All Rights 2. Volatile matter: Lesser the volatile matter, better is the rank of coal. 3. Ash content: Lower the ash content, better is the quality of coal. 4. Fixed carbon: Higher fixed carbon content, better is the quality of coal. Engineering Chemistry (revised edition) ISBN: 978-81-265-4475-2 Copyright©2014 Wiley India Pvt. Ltd. All Rights Semi-Solid Fuels – Some Recent Advances The term semi-solid fuel in modern context refers to non-volatile substances that are environmentally safe and produce no hazardous waste on burning. These have long shelf-life and their ignition can be easily started and stopped. To overcome these problems, developing countries are transforming coal into gaseous or liquid fuel formulations or converting it into low ash and low sulphur varieties. For example, a solvent-refined, semi-solid form of coal has been prepared by suspending pulverized coal in a solvent and treating it with hydrogen gas at high temperature and pressure.
