Master fuel analysis for practical use: learn how to evaluate solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels for real‑world efficiency and cost. This concise guide helps chemists and engineers understand the quality, heating power, and economic application of fuels, from coal and coke to patent fuels and oils. It combines proven methods with practical notes to estimate moisture, ash, coke and volatile matter, sulfur content, and calorific or evaporating power, while highlighting how furnace type and air control affect results.
The book presents clear procedures, safety notes, and practical considerations for estimating fuel value. It explains how to interpret results and compare fuels for specific applications, including liquids and gases, with attention to minimizing heat losses in flue gases and maximizing economic performance.
Ideal for readers who work with boilers, locomotives, and industrial furnaces, or who study fuel analysis and valuation for practical engineering decisions.
