Abstract: In this paper work has been presented for coal properties and flue gas temperature of Sagardighi Thermal Power Station. For any industrial workings, the temperature estimation is an important parameter. Hence for Thermal power station the temperature estimation of flue gas is very important parameter. The coal is being received in Thermal power station from collieries. After receiving the coal, it has to be sent for pulverization. Coal is being burnt in furnace and produces steam pressures in Boiler. For producing this Pressure, the proper combustion of coal is very important. Whether the proper combustion of coal is taken place or not, it can be known by measuring the Flue Gas temperature. The temperature of flue gas can be measured in Thermal power station by thermocouples, pyrometers and other contact type sensors. This temperature measurement of flue gas is an extremely difficult and it may damage sensors because of high temperature. The basic properties of coal are Gross Calorific Value (GCV), Fixed Carbon (FC), Ash content, Volatile Matter (VM) and Moisture content.
