Boiler

The cost of the component was explained in component costs or emissions page. The reference size is the nominal power \(\dot{Q}_{Boil,nom}\).

The heat output must remain below the rated output

\[{\dot{Q}_{Boil}}^t \leq \dot{Q}_{Boil,nom}^{[\frac{t}{l_{yr}}]}\]

The mass flow rate of the fired fluid is calculated by the thermal efficiency of the boiler

\[{M_{Boil}}^t = \frac{{\dot{Q}_{Boil}}^t}{\eta_{th}}\]
