Abstract

Modeling of various processes in CFB boilers (combustion, aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, etc.) is connected with the solution of systems of differential equations with a large number of unknowns that leads to their simplification and, accordingly, affect the quality of the calculation. The work consists of several parts and aims to assess the applicability of some or other mathematical algorithms to obtain a quantitative simulation of processes in power boilers with circulating fluidized bed. In part, presented in this article, the simulation of CFB boiler aerodynamics using ANSYS FLUENT is considered.

Highlights

  • The modeling methods for CFB furnaces can be classified as fundamentals-oriented and practice-oriented models

  • The 3-D model simulation of the aerodynamic structure of CFB boiler has been resolved by applying ANSYS FLUENT 12.1

  • In this work the analysis of the numerical simulation results of the aerodynamic structure of furnace volume, the cyclone and the elements for particles return in CFB boiler with the help of ANSYS FLUENT was made

Summary

Introduction

The modeling methods for CFB furnaces can be classified as fundamentals-oriented and practice-oriented models. In the fundamentals-oriented models, the modeling of the fluid dynamics is attempted with the currently available fundamental theories, such as the Eulerian–Eulerian multiphase models applying the kinetic theory of granular flow. In the practice-oriented models (or engineering models), the theories are simplified and adjusted by empirical correlations to improve the calculation speed and fit the model results with the measured data [1, 2]. The 3-D model simulation of the aerodynamic structure of CFB boiler has been resolved by applying ANSYS FLUENT 12.1
