Feed water enters the boiler at a temperature of 30°C. It leaves the boiler as 85 % dry and enters the super heater where it is superheated to a temperature of 300°C. Determine the heat supplied per Kg of steam in the Boiler and in the super heater if the pressure is 1.5 N/mm2. From the super heater if the ste is led to a heat exchanger for process heating where it loses 88.7% of enthalpy, determine the condition and related parameter of the steam at the exit point of heat exchanger Assume the specific heat of water 4.187 kJ/KgK and that of superheated steam as 2.25 kJ/KgK.

Question
Answer both the questions
Feed water enters the boiler at a temperature of 30°C. It leaves the boiler as 85 % dry and enters the
super heater where it is superheated to a temperature of 300°C. Determine the heat supplied per Kg of
steam in the Boiler and in the super heater if the pressure is 1.5 N/mm2. From the super heater if the steam
is led to a heat exchanger for process heating where it loses 88.7% of enthalpy, determine the condition
and related parameter of the steam at the exit point of heat exchanger Assume the specific heat of water as
4.187 kJ/KgK and that of superheated steam as 2.25 kJ/KgK.
Why do we need preheating of feed water and air in a boiler?
