Combustion mechanism of a 300 MW pulverized coal boiler is analyzed and the optimization of the performance of the boiler is carried out. The flow field, temperature field, devolatilization, char combustion and CO generation in the boiler furnace under actual condition is obtained by using Fluent. Three methods to improve the efficiency of boiler combustion are proposed based on the pulverized ...

Yoshihiro Sukegawa Kazuhiro Oryoji Eiji Ishii, Dr. Eng. OVERVIEW: Improving the fuel economy and emissions of vehicle engines requires a detailed understanding of the various physical processes taking place inside the engine so as to identify optimal combustion control techniques and engine component designs. Based on numerical techniques established by its power plant business for the analysis...

The development and implementation of a diesel engine combustion system simulation model is described. The model is a crank angle based combustion model, which uses the conditions in the intake and exhaust manifolds together with the fuel injection signal from the engine control unit to estimate the in-cylinder pressure throughout a complete combustion cycle. The model is implemented in Matlab....

ABSTRACT:A mathematical model for the performance prediction of an industrial glass furnace with six ports on each side was developed. This model comprises of two main sub-models for the combustion chamber and glass-melting tank. The first sub-model consists of the models for the combustion and the heat transfer model including, radiation, convection and conduction. The fuel combustion in a...

The numerical modelling and process simulation for the fault diagnosis of rotary kiln incinerator were accomplished. In the numerical modelling, two models applied to the modelling within the kiln are the combustion chamber model including the mass and energy balance equations for two combustion chambers and 3D thermal model. The combustion chamber model predicts temperature within the kiln, fl...

Nowadays, the major challenge of diesel engines development is simultaneous nitrogen oxides and soot emissions reduction without the thermal efficiency drop. Hence, different combustion concepts should be investigated to reach optimum emission and performance conditions in diesel engines without expensive aftertreatment systems. This paper presents the results of a study on a dual fuel (DF) eng...

CFD analysis on the MSW incinerator combustion chamber provides crucial insight on the thermal flow fields, but a difficulty arise from the boundary conditions on the waste bed in which the combustion is governed by complicated heat and mass transfer phenomena. Solid waste bed combustion models are constructed to predict the combustion process and corresponding generation of gas phase species b...

A process simulation model was constructed for a 2 ton/hr incinerator. The simulation model was designed to provide system performance parameters according to various operating conditions. In accommodating the wide variation of quality and composition of input wastes, the plant operating parameters such as amount of excess air, preheated air temperature, waste feed rate and primary air distribu...

This paper simulates the density and temperature fields in the process of mixture formation with two combustion modes in a Diesel engine. The computational simulations and experiments show that in the normal combustion mode, the density and temperature of mixtures change greatly in the combusting sprays so that there are premixed combustion and diffusion combustion simultaneously, which results...
