The boiler manufacturer can, and may even have done performance tests as part of the technical sales process.

If you want the rough number, find out the fuel consumption per hour and steam output.

Knowing the caloric value of the fuel and the input flow, you get how much potential heat you are sending to the boiler.

Knowing the enthalpy of the condensate and the enthalpy of the steam you get the output energy.
