This document provides a process flow diagram and material balance for a thermic fluid heating system. It calculates material flow rates for thermic fluid, furnace oil, and air needed using heat transfer equations. Electricity requirements are estimated for pumps and blowers. Key operating parameters and a basic equipment list are also provided.

PROCESS FLOW DIAGRAM
Material Balance
Thermic Fluid Q = m x Cp x T 10,00,000 = m x 0.5 x 20 = 100000kg/hr Hence, m = 1,00,000 kg/hr Vol flow rate = 100000/ 800 = 125 m3/hr
Furnace Oil required = 10,00,000/(9650x0.83) = 124.842 kg/hr Vol flow rate = 124.842/900 = 0.137 m3/hr Air Basis : 100 kg fuel 84 kg C 84/12 x 32 = 224 (CO2) 11 kg H 11/2x16 = 88 (H2O) 3.5 kg S Total = 315.5 kg Total O2 required theoretically = 315.5 x 124.8/100 = 393.89 kg/hr CONSIDERING 20 % Excess Therefore, O2 supplied = 472 kg/hr Kmoles of O2 = 472/32 = 14.78 Hence Air required = 14.78x 29/0.21 = 2039.8 kg/hr Density of air at 1 atm pressure & 30 deg C = 29 / (22.4x303/273) = 1.167 kg/m3 Hence, volumetric flow rate of air reqd = 2039.8 /1.167 = 1757.75 m3/hr ELECTRICITY: 1. THERMIC FLUID PUMP: POWER = (PRESSURE DEVELOPED X VOL. FLOW RATE)/ EFFECIENCY = (400 KPa X 125 X1000)/(3600 X 0.6 X 1000) = 23.14 KW (ASSUMING PRESSURE DEVELOPED = 4-5 BAR) POWER = 23 KW 2. FUEL PUMP: POWER = (PRESSURE DEVELOPED X Q)/EFF. = 20 X 100000 X 0.1387/(3600 X 1000 X .5) = 0.154KW POWER = 0.15 KW 3. Air blower: (pressure = 200 mm water column) Power = (.2 x 1000 x 9.81) X 1757.75)/3600 X 1000 X .8 = 1.12 KW
