Modeling on the effect of imbalance burner pressure and mass flow rate in a full-scale gas fired industrial boiler
CFD simulation of the combustion process in a 120MW gas fired industrial boiler has been performed, with focus on the flow pattern and temperature distribution at the reheater section in the furnace. The modeling was done using general-purpose CFD software, CFD-ACE+ developed by CFD Research Corpora...
