This document provides data to calculate the efficiency of a boiler. It includes information on the fuel and steam generation rates, temperatures, and compositions. The calculation involves determining the theoretical air required for complete combustion, actual air supplied, flue gas composition, and heat losses from various sources such as dry flue gas, water formation, moisture in fuel and air, carbon conversion to CO, and radiation. The overall boiler efficiency is calculated to be 81.6184082146%.
