Fuel Consumption for 1MW Power Generation

1) Tentative calculations were made to estimate the fuel consumption and costs required to generate 1MW of power. It was estimated that 3.9 kg of steam per kWh would be needed at 485°C and 65 kg/cm2, requiring 3838 kcal/kWh to produce 1MW of power. 2) The raw material costs were also calculated, with a mixture of 30% coal at 3750 kcal/kg and 70% dolo char at 1500 kcal/kg estimated to provide 2175 kcal/kg and a consumption of 1.765 kg per MWh generated. 3) Using the estimated raw material consumption and prices of Rs 3200/MT for coal
