Experimental Analysis of CFBC Boiler and AFBC Boiler with Different GCV, Boiler Loads and Excess Air

Abstract

Abstract: The main motive of this study is to experimental analysis of the Atmospheric fluidized bed combustion boiler and Circulating fluidized bed combustion boiler with different gross calorific value of coal, boiler loads and excess air. For this analysis, use textile waste as a primary fuel and calculate GCV with help of bomb calorimeter. Conduct energy calculation of the overall plant and determine the efficiencies and energy losses of all the major components of the thermal power station. The study was carried out at Thermal power station of Industry Yarns at Mandideep and boiler section of thermal power plant is considered for the purpose of exergy analysis. The boiler of a power plant is the most effective section in eliminating exergy. Calculate the efficiency of CFBC and AFBC Boiler with different GCV of Textile waste and it is clearly shows that efficiency of CFBC boiler is higher than AFBC boiler in same GCV of textile waste. The present investigation show results of 30 mw power plant. Experiments were conducted using 0%, 20 %, 30% and 40% of excess air and 65%,70%,75%,80%,85%,90%,95% ,100% boiler loads. In the present investigation boiler house gives the best results at 0% excess air with maximum boiler load as far as the boiler efficiency (75.2%) are concerned. 65% boiler load With 0% excess air the boiler efficiency is found to be maximum (75.2%), which gives minimum heat loss. Without excess air AFBC boiler is not capable to burn low grade fuels show it is clear that for low grade fuel maximum efficiency of thermal power plant achieved by CFBC boiler because low grade fuel completely burns with 0% excess air.
