Coal CV

This document provides a calculation of the calorific value (CV) of a sample of Talcher coal using Dulong's formula. The coal sample had a gross calorific value (GCV) of 4766.053545 kcal/kg and a net calorific value (NCV) of 4572.749545 kcal/kg on an "as received" basis factoring in 7% total moisture. On a dry basis with moisture removed, the coal sample had a GCV of 5171.625813 kcal/kg and NCV of 5006.231135 kcal/kg. The coal analysis by proximate and ultimate analysis is also provided.

CALORIFIC VALUE CALCULATIONS


Formula e Used
Du longs Formula for GCV= [ 14540*C+ 62028 ( H2–O2/8) + 4050*S ] * 5.5556 *10^ -3
NCV= GCV – 584[ ( 9H2 + M ) / 100 ]
Where C = % of Carbon
H2 = % of Hydrogen
O2 = % of Oxygen
M = % of Moisture
