The paper deals with the methods for defining the composition of the coal mixture burnt in boilers at combined heat and power plants. Indirect methods for defining the proportions of the two grades of coal in the mixture based on the available information on the quality characteristics of the coal are proposed. According to the first method the coal mixture composition is determined based on the values of volatile substances content in the combustible mass of the coal mixture and of each grade of coal making up the mixture. The second method uses the lower combustion heat of the coal mixture and lower combustion heats of the two grades of coal that the mixture consists of. The uncertainties of the results obtained by the developed methods are evaluated.
