Actual average flow/cycle time

Actual average flow/cycle time measures the average actual time taken for all units processed over a specified duration, such as a week or a month. The actual flow/cycle time includes the theoretical time and any delays. This metric should be used when setting due... 

The burning rate (kg fuel/h) is not constant over the combustion cycle. However, since a fan is used for the air supply to the boiler the actual flue gas flow does not vary too much with time. Based on calculations from the total fuel consunqition and oxygen content in the flue gas and on measurements using a Prandtl-tube in the chimney, the average flue gas flow was estimated to be 100 m /h.
