Gross & net calorific value is the same for___________________?
Correct answer: A. L.D. converter gas
- A. L.D. converter gas
- B. Coke oven gas
- C. Blast furnace gas
- D. None of these
Explanation
Gross and net calorific values differ when combustion produces water from hydrogen, because the gross value includes condensation heat. LD converter gas is essentially carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen, with negligible hydrogen, so the two values are approximately the same.
