waste heat recovery

09/02/2008 3:46 AM

A 380 KVA natural gas fired genset is running on 250 KW load. We want to install vapour absorption chiller by waste heat of flue gas. The flue gas temperature is 450 degree C.

What is the potential TR

Btus/hr = CFM X 1.08 X temperature difference

12000 Btus = 1 Ton

CFM is unknown

450 degree C is known

How much are you going to cool the discharge? Subtract the lower temperature from the 450 degree C will give you the temperature difference.

Then do the math.

I mean how much TR VAM we can get if-

Load on Engine-250 KW

Mass Flow Rate of Flue Gas -1250 Kg/Hour

Specific heat of Flue gas - 0.27 Kcal/Kg/C

Temperature of flue gas -450 C
