QUESTION 9 (T/F)
by John Escalante

Fluidized bed boiler can use

gasoline as fuel, true or
false?

QUESTION 10 (ID)
by John Escalante

Coal is burnt in a
suspension in this type of
stoke fired boiler.

QUESTION 11 (T/F)
By Arlee Dimaano

TRUE
OR
FALSE:
The
lower
combustion temperature is achieved
because of high coefficient of heat
transfer to slow mixing in the
fluidized
bed
and
effective
extraction of heat from the bed
through in-bed heat transfer tubes
and walls of the bed.
