Presently we are following mcp(T2-T1)/ heat input.

Any other alternative method can be follow?

Buy an flue gas analyzer which does everything after measuring all flue gas %.

A Fyrite Boiler Test Kit from Bachrach will give you Co2/o2/Co/Temp/Draft/Smoke # etc., use your formulas to manual calculate or the slide-rule which comes with it will indicate efficiency %.

Dear Mr. gMathur189,

There is an error in your question.

T1 and T2 will be Temperature, and Heat is in K.Cal. or Kilo Joules and different from Temp,

Pl. be clear in question.
