(4) Calculate the mass flow of steam in the cycle for rated power output, the heat input

rate to the steam, and by making assumptions for boiler efficiency (determine from

literature review).

Compare the mass flow rate of the following different fuels if used to fuel the boiler:

• Fuel oil

• Biomass

Discuss briefly the pro's and con's of the two different fuel types (engineering and

environmental considerations, commenting on the European Union 'Large Combustion

Plant Directive').
