Flue Gas Volume

09/15/2010 10:25 PM

I have a boiler with flue gas volume (at 20 degree C and 1 bar) is 510,000m3/h. How can I calculate the volume at 400degree C and 0.5 bar?

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2.

(1)(510,000)(273+20) = (0.5)(V2)(273+400) [Assuming bar absolute.]; or

(1+1)(510)(293) = (1+0.5)(V2)(673) [Assuming barg.]

If you want to calculate the gas volume of the exhaust gases, at an earlier stage (400 deg C and 0.5 bar(g), could describe the burner exit), and you want to base your calculation on the gas volume at 20 deg C and 1 bar(Abs), then you should consider also the volume of the water vapour that has been condensated.
