Abstract: Tangentially fired boilers are widely used in generating electricity power due to its advantage of distributing heat evenly to all furnace walls.
Currently, most of the existing studies concentrated on analysing the temperature imbalance at furnace exit and simulations are done at design condition.

S.Som[5] and the others proposed a new primary atomization model that is KH-ACT model which considered influence of aerodynamic effects, turbulent and cavitation and numerical simulation results were closer to those from the test;Berg[6] used three-dimension model to simulation two-phase flow in nozzles and coupled the data at the nozzle outlet from simulations with primary atomization model considering of cavitation.At present, study of primary atomization is far from enough,with both experimental way and numerical simulation.In this paper,the turbulence and cavitation in nozzle flow were coupled to simulate spray and different primary atomization model were analyized and evaluated though numerical simulation with them and then influence factors on primary atomization were analyized.

In the future the following several aspects of primary atomization will be paid more attention to :(1) advanced visualization experiment devices must be used to get the detailed structure of intalt liquid core in primary atomization.(2) new precise primary break-up model which consider aerodynamic effects, turbulence and cavitation must be setup and be input to CFD spray models for getting more actual spray simulation.

Modelling Approach
The modelling CFD includes three stage which is pre-processing, solver and post processing using ANSYS-CFX 14.
As the real geometry for CO2 leakage model has a very high dimension, it will require a high number of meshes and long simulation time.
Results and Discussion The base case model has been simulated for simulation time 50 days, 100 days, 300 days, 500 days, and 1000 days using transient analysis.
To predict the potential of CO2 leakage, the simulation results has been plotted into logarithmic graph with a yearly timescale.
The CFD result also being compared with experiment data from Barlet Gouedard supercritical CO2 and saturated data [3] and Kutchko saturated brine [2].
