To find out the steam requirement for drying, the Energy Manager measures the dryness of the paper both at inlet and outlet of the paper drying machine which found to be 60% and 95% respectively. The steam is supplied at 4 kg/cm2, having a latent heat of 510 kCal/kg. The evaporated moisture temperature is around 100 0C having enthalpy of 640 kCal/kg. Plant operates 24 hours per day. Assume only latent heat of steam is being used for drying the paper and neglect the enthalpy of the moisture in the wet paper. i) Estimate the quantity of moisture to be evaporated per hr. ii) Input steam quantity required for evaporation per hr. Ans: Output of the drying machine = 480 TPD with 95% dryness. Bone dry mass of paper at the output = 480 x 0.95 = 456 TPD Since the dryness at the inlet is 60%, Total mass of wet paper at the inlet = (456 x 100) / 60 = 760 TPD Moisture evaporated per hour = (760 480)/ 24 = 11.67TPH Mass of Steam, m = (11.67 x 640)/ 510 = 14.6 TPH 18 Paper 1 Set A SUPPLIMENTARY L-6 Write short notes on? 1) Net calorific value 2) Maximum Demand 3) Contract Demand 4) Load factor Ans: Net Calorific Value (NCV) The heating value of fuel is the measure of the heat released during the complete combustion of unit weight of fuel. It is expressed as Gross Calorific Value (GCV) or Net Calorific Value (NCV). The difference between GCV and NCV is the heat of vaporization of the moisture and atomic hydrogen (conversion to water vapour) in the fuel. Maximum Demand Maximum demand is the highest average kVA recorded during any onedemand interval within the month. The demand interval is normally 30 minutes, but may vary from utility to utility from 15 minutes to 60 minutes. The demand is measured using a tri-vector meter / digital energy meter. Contract Demand Contract demand is the amount of electric power that a customer demands from utility in a specified interval. Unit used is kVA or kW. It is the amount of electric power that the consumer agreed upon with the utility. This would mean that utility has to plan for the specified capacity. Load factor It is the ratio of average load to maximum load. In other words, it is the ratio of energy consumed during a given period of time to the maximum energy demand if maximum load is maintained throughout that time period. . .
