In this paper the results obtained by the numerical method of modeling of Ekibastuz coal burning in BKZ-420 combustion chamber of Kazakhstan Power Plant are presented. They are devoted to the numerical simulation of combustion processes in the furnace boiler BKZ-420. Boiler's steam generates capacity equal 420 T/h. Boiler has six vertical pulverized coal burners arranged in two levels with three burners on the front wall of the boiler. High ash, low-grade coal from Ekibastuz burned in the furnace. Its ash content is 40%, volatile -24%, humidity-5%, highest calorific value is 16750 kJ/kg. Milling dispersity of coal was equal to R 90 = 15%.It was shown in this research that the most intense burning is observed in the central part of the chamber where the flow temperature reaches about 980 °C and it is seen that the temperature reaches a peak in the cross sections of the burners location. The combustion reaction there occurs more intensively.
Abstract. In this paper the results obtained by the method of numerical modelling of Ekibastuz coal burning in furnace of Kazakhstan Power Plant. Numerical experiment was carried out on the basis of three-dimensional equations of convective heat and mass transfer, taking into account the heat propagation, heat radiation, chemical reactions and multiphase structure of the medium to predict the influence of different water content in coal on overall furnace operation and formation of combustion products.
Solid fuel plays significant role in the development of civilization as the main fuel source. Use of low-grade (ash content ~ 40-45%) coal is partially offset environmental problems also affect human health when it is burned. As the main industrial corporations use coal, in particular low-grade high-ash content coal from Ekibastuz coal basin because of its cheap cost the atmosphere of megacities like Almaty is polluted by noxious volatile. In this study were developed a mathematical model of turbulent heat and mass transfer process occurring in the combustion chamber of SB-39 of Aksusskaya TPP for control the concentration of volatile and to recommend the optimize methods for burning process. Based on 3D computer modeling investigated formation of harmful dust and gas emissions during the combustion of low-grade coal and offered cost-effective methods of burning.
The paper deals with development and application the numerical model for solution of processes at combustion chamber of the thermal power plant boiler. Mathematical simulation is based on solution of physical and chemical processes occuring at burning pulverized coal in the furnace model. Three-dimensional flows, heat and mass transfer, chemical kinetics of the processes, effects of thermal radiation are considered. Obtained results give quantitative information on velocity distributions, temperature and concentration profiles of the components, the amount of combustion products including harmful substances. The numerical model becomes a tool for investigation and design of combustion chambers with high-efficiency and reliable operation of boiler at thermal power plants.
