Numerical Simulation Research on Coal Combustion

Abstract:

The comparative study of numerical results on pulverized coal combustion process with CFD has become an important measure for direct engineering practice. In this paper, a combustion facility was simulated numerically with the Fluent code to investigate the process of coal combustion. Firstly, geometric models, grid and boundary type were established in the Gambit. Secondly, required models, physical properties and working conditions were chosen in the solver. Then, the important diagrams of each component displayed distinctly in the post professor. The simulation results showed that the rules of the volatile releasing and combustion processes of coke could provide important references to improve the combustion of the pulverized coal.
