Important Notes

These calculations provide estimates for engineering purposes. Actual values may vary based on specific boiler design, operating conditions, and fuel quality.

Boiler Efficiency = [Steam Capacity × (hg − hf_actual)] / [Fuel Consumption × NCV] × 100
Effective System Efficiency = [Steam Capacity × (hg − hf_at_20°C)] / [Fuel Consumption × NCV] × 100
