This report presents the computer generated run summary data of Retort Run S-15, as well as mass and energy balance calculations. The tables given in this report should be used in place of those presented in the earlier report. The other materials presented in this report should be used as a supplement to the earlier report since the data presented in that report has not been reproduced here. Retort Run S-15 was a combustion run in the small retort (125 kg retort). The experiment was conducted on December 20-21, 1977. Shale from the Anvil Points mine was crushed and screened to -2.54 + 0.001 cm (-1.0 + 0.0004 inch), then retorted under a 50% air/50% steam atmosphere. S-15 was run under the same gas flow conditions as S-13 and S-14.
