Flue gas loss
Flue gas loss caused by free heat
arises as a consequence of the temper-
ature difference between the fuel-air
mixture entering the combustion cham-
ber and the gases that leave it. The
higher the air surplus and thus the
greater the flue gas volume, the higher
the loss.
It is calculated as follows:
q
A
= flue gas loss in %
t
A
= flue gas temperature in °C
t
L
= combustion
air temperature in °C
CO

content in %
Examples:
Measured values in natural gas opera-
tion:

content of the flue gases10.8 %
Flue gas temperature
195 °C
Air intake temperature
22 °C
Flue gas loss is calculated thus:
