Im working on a problem involving a 600 MW coal fired power plant that has a heat rate of 9700 BTU/kWh. The particular coal being burned has an LHV of 5957 Btu/lbm and an HHV of 6440 BTU/kWh......
It asks to find the rate at which coal must be suppled to the plant in tons/hr....
I am trying to figure an apporach for the problem.....
Im thinking I would need the heat rate but not sure where to go from there....
