Simplified Geometry of
coal/biomass fired burner
1. Fuel flow
2. Air flow for exactly stoichiometric (=1) combustion
3. Air flow at any % excess air (say 22%)
4. Burner annuli diameters to match velocity requirements
5. Overall burner diameter
6. Approximate flue gas composition
7. Oxy fuel combustion as above

To think about what a mole means, one should relate it to quantities such as
dozen or pair. Just as a pair can mean two shoes, two books, two pencils, two
people, or two of anything else, a mole means 6.02214179×10 23 of anything.
is analogous to saying:
