Investigating the Effect of Changes in Furnace Operating Conditions Using the Well-Stirred Model
Journal Title: Leonardo Electronic Journal of Practices and Technologies - Year 2007, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
An investigation into the effect of changes in furnace operating conditions employing the application of the ‘well-stirred furnace model’ is presented in this work. The operating conditions considered were the air preheats convection, fuel flow rates, excess air and air infiltration. For each of these conditions, the mean gas temperature, furnace output and thermal efficiencies were evaluated. The results show that apart from excess air and air infiltration, the effect of all the other operating conditions indicated an enhancement in the furnace performance.
