    The document summarizes the design of a furnace for aniline production from nitrobenzene. It provides calculations to determine: 1) The heat liberated by the fuel which is 11637814.22 Btu/h assuming a 75% efficiency. 2) The sensible heat in the combustion air which is 1116209.639 Btu/h accounting for a 25% excess of air. 3) The heat leaving the radiant section in the flue gases which is 4313576.731 Btu/h. 4) The heat loss through the furnace walls which is 232756.2 Btu/h assuming a 2% loss. 5)
