Maximum thermal efficiency of boiler may be about _____________ percent?

Correct answer: D. 90

  • A. 10
  • B. 25
  • C. 65
  • D. 90

Explanation

Modern well-designed boilers can transfer roughly 80 to 90% of the fuel heat to the steam, so about 90% is a reasonable maximum. Values such as 10 or 25% are far too low for boiler efficiency.
