Heavy Fuel Oils, HFOHeavy fuel oils consist largely of residues from crude oils refining. These residues are blended with suitable gas oil fractions in order to achieve the viscosity required for convenient handling. Since the sulfur contained in the crude oil is concentrated in the residue material, heavy fuel oils sulfur level naturally is rather high. Furthermore, heavy fuel oils may contain large quantities of heavy metals such as nickel and vanadium and also sediments and water. For these reasons it is outmost important that the engineer easily can calculate the fuel oils appropriate operation temperature, its energy and its ignition quality. The FUEL OIL Calculation Program Fuel oil calculations are important for anyone responsible for the
efficient operational management of heavy fuel oil fired boilers, fired heaters
and diesel oil power stations. The program is designed to help with the
calculation necessary for the quantity measurement of oil products and for the
efficient handling and use of marine heavy fuels. While intended principally
for ships staff it should also be found useful by those ashore in ship
owners’ organizations, engine and equipment manufacturer, ship builder
etc. |
