| The method for calculation of composition of Estonian oil shale and its combustion products, as well as product amounts on the basis of lower heating value of the fuel as received is presented. The method is fast and enables an operative estimation of changes in boiler and its elements during burning of oil shale of different heating value. The need for such a model has arisen in connection with the choice of suitable fuel at design of new oil shale boilers. |
