Abstract:The real time, in-situ measurement of excess oxygen and temperature in the radiant heat zone of a boiler or furnace provides a window for viewing combustion conditions closest to the source. Excess oxygen and temperature measurements, taken at strategic sample points around the firebox, provide timely information for optimal trim control of the combustion process. With fuel costs skyrocketing and a focus on reducing NOx emissions, it is essential that the excess oxygen measurement be fast and accurate. Commerc… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
