Abstract The formation of thermal NO and fuel type NO emission under the air staged combustion in a tower pulverized coal fired boiler that burners are arranged in the front and the rear wall are investigated in this paper. Effects of the distribution of oxygen in the main combustion zone on NO_X are then analyze qualitatively. The results show that when the SOFA ratio is 34.98%, NO_X yield is at the minimum; thermal NO is not only related to temperature, but also by the influence of oxygen distribution. When oxygen is more and the temperature is high, it is conducive to… More >

Abstract Non-uniform heating and vapor blockage deteriorate the effectiveness of transpiration cooling, and an optimization method by using porous media with a gradually-changed structure is proposed. The numerical tool based on a two-phase mixture model and local thermal non-equilibrium assumption considering variable properties of coolant is applied. Porous media with linearly-changed porosity or particle diameter is analyzed. The transient results presented that the structure of gradually-changed porosity (or particle diameter) with appropriate parameters can delay the heat transfer deterioration. And it is confirmed that the present theoretical model is an effective tool for optimization design of transpiration cooling system. More >
