Abstract

The work is devoted to numerical 3D modelling of aerodynamics and pulverized-coal combustion processes in a novel vortex furnace of a boiler unit for thermal power stations. A prospective retrofitting design of this furnace, featuring additional tangential blowing at the bottom part of the vortex combustion chamber, has been studied. The firing regimes using two types of siberian coal (black coal, brown coal) are considered. Numerical results for the studied combustion regimes in the modified vortex furnace are presented, including the fields of velocity, temperature, species and dispersed phase concentrations, and the comparative analysis of NOx emissions for two types of coal.
