Abstract:

During Hot Blast Stove (HBS) combustion, NOx forms rapidly when the flame temperature above 1420°C. In order to restrain the amount of NOx formation during combustion of HBS, the formation mechanism of NOx is investigated, and the NOx formation rate and amount in HBS are calculated by means of thermodynamic model. A new type of dome combustion HBS is developed based on high temperature air combustion (HTAC) technology. A comparison on the combustion process and characteristic of conventional HBS and HTAC HBS is performed by application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation model. Temperature and concentration distribution, flame shape and NOx concentration distribution of two kinds of stove are calculated. The result shows quite symmetrical HTAC stove temperature distribution. Under the same dome temperature, NOx amount is 80ppm only, reduced by approximate 76% in comparison with conventional stove.
