FUELS may be classified according to their physical state as solid, liquid, or gaseous. The principal fuels used for domestic heating are coal, oil, and gas. However, coke, wood, kerosene, sawdust, briquettes, and other substances are used for heating in special applications or in localities where an adequate supply is available. Experiments are in progress in the use of a colloidal suspension of coal particles in fuel oil, but this fuel has not attained wide-spread usage as yet. The choice of fuel is usually based on
dependability, cleanliness, availability, economy, operating requirements, and control.
SOLID FUELS
Analysis of Fuels
Goal has a complex composition that makes classification into clear-cut types difficult. Chemically it consists of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitro gen, sulfur, and a mineral residue called ash. A chemical analysis provides some indication of the quality of a coal, but does not define its burning characteristics sufficiently. The coal user is interested principally in. the available heat per pound of coal, the handling and storing properties, the amount of ash and dust produced, and the burning characteristics. A description of the relationship between the qualities of coals and these
characteristics requires considerable space; a treatment applicable to .
heating boilers is given in a Sureau of Mines Bulletin.'
'
There are two forms of coal analyses, namely, the proximate analysis and the ultimate analysis. In the proximate analysis the proportions of
moisture, volatile .matter, fixed carbon, sulfur, and ash are determined. This analysis is more, easily made and is satisfactory for indicating most of the characteristics which are of interest to the user. For the proximate analysis the. moisture is determined by observing the loss of weight of a
sample of coal when dried at about 220 F. To determine the volatile matter, the dried sample is heated to about 1750 F in a closed crucible, and the loss of weight is noted. The remaining sample, is then burned in
an open crucible, and the accompanying loss of weight represents the fixed carbon. The unbumed residue is ash. Although determined separately, the sulfur content is frequently reported with the proxiihate analysis be
cause the usefulness of a coal for certain purposes depends on its sulfur content.
In the ultimate analysis, which is difficult'to make, the percentages of caTMn> hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and ash in the coal sample are determined. It is used for detailed studies of fuels, and in computing
