dc.description.abstractIndustries, district heating companies, and public institutions that use boilers for heating, process, or power production find it challenging to run at peak efficiencies due to rising fuel prices. Efficiency analysis is extremely important and brings attention to the boiler, which is at the center of energy generation because insufficient heat energy production and distribution efficiency contributes to overall energy expenditures. Boilers are widely used to produce steam which is used in mechanical components to transform fuel energy into kinetic energy of steam. The performance of a boiler is affected by various controlling parameters such as specific fuel consumption capacity, load, and heat losses. The current study was conducted to evaluate the performance of the coal-fired water tube boiler of D.G khan cement company limited and optimize the performance parameters using the Grey-Taguchi method. The experimental data were then validated through ANN-predicted results. The results indicated that the overall performance of the boiler was optimized at run number thirty where specific fuel consumption was 3.09 Kg/s at 66 % of the load, a steam temperature of 532 oC, and a steam pressure was 9.93 MPa. The specific steam flow rate was observed as 21.38 Kg/s at input conditions.
