below 100 Btu/ft3(3728 KI/m3). Although wide ranges of heating values canbe accommodated with different fuelsystems, the maximum variation that can be used in a given fuel system is .10%.
Sulfur content must be controlled in units with exhaust recovery systems.If sulfur condenses in the exhauststack, corrosion can result. In units with-out exhaust recovery there is noproblem, since stack temperatures areconsiderably higher than the dew point. Sulfurcan, however, promote hot-section corrosion in combustion with certain alkali metals such as sodium or potasium. This type of corrosion is sulfidation or hot corrosion and is controlled by limiting the intake of sulfur and alkali metals. Contaminants found in a gas depend on the particular gas. Common contaminants includetar, lampblack, coke, sand, and lube oil.
Table 12-4 is a summary of liquid fuel specifications set by manufacturers for efficient machine operations. The water and sediment limit is set at 1% by maximum volume to prevent fouling of the fuel system and obstruction of the fuel filters. Viscosity is limited to 20 centistokes at the fuel nozzles toprevent clogging of the fuel lines. Also, it is advisable that the pour point be 20 0F (11 0C) below the minimum ambient temperature. Failure to meet this specification can be corrected by heating the fuel lines. Carbon residue should be less than 1% by weight based on 100% of the sample. The hydrogen content is related to the smoking tendency of a fuel. Lower
