Theoretical air value of the heating furnace

2008-01-16View Original

Thread Content

Which expert knows the method for calculating the theoretical air volume of a furnace that uses fuel gas for heating? I would be very grateful if you could provide the calculation formula or a small software tool.

Same request – is there anyone skilled who can help solve this?

1) Determine the combustible components of the fuel; 2) Determine the oxygen consumption of each combustible component ; For example, with CH4, C consumes 1 unit of oxygen, and H4 also consumes 1 unit of oxygen; thus, each cubic meter of CH4 requires 2 cubic meters of oxygen. 3) Determine the amount of oxygen required per unit of fuel consumption ; 4) Air excess coefficient ; This is related to the heating furnace. 5) Oxygen consumption × excess coefficient = oxygen demand. You can completely create your own Excel document to solve it.

I remember there being a calculation formula, but I’ve forgotten it; I searched for ages without finding it! The formula is very complex and requires extensive calculations!
