Estimation of gross calorific value based on coal analysis using ...
WEBJul 1, 2009 · 1.. IntroductionCalorific value is an important property, indiing the useful energy content of coal and, thereby, its value as fuel. Heating value is a rank parameter, but is also dependant on the maceral and mineral composition (Hower and Eble, 1996).A number of equations have been developed for the prediction of gross calorific value .
