Basic calculations on fuels combustion
WEBCarbon, hydrogen and Sulphur in the fuel combine with oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide, water vapour and Sulphur dioxide releasing tremendous heat. Basic requirements of combustion:Fuel, Oxygen and 3T's. C + O2 = CO2+ Heat 8084 kcal/kg of Carbon. 2C + O2 = 2CO + Heat 2430 kcal/kg of Carbon.
