Computerized Analysis of Low NOx W-Shaped Coal-Fired Furnaces. 2001, 15, 776−782

INNOVATIVE CLEAN COAL TECHNOLOGY OCCn 180 MW DEMONSTRATION OF ADVANCED TANGENTIALLY-FIRED COMBUSTION TECHNIQUES FOR THE REDUCTION OF NITROGEN OXIDE (NOx) EMISSIONS FROM COAL-FIRED BOILERS

Modeling NOx emissions from coal-fired utility boilers using support vector regression with ant colony optimization

Modeling NOx emissions from coal fired utility boiler is critical to develop a predictive emissions monitoring system (PEMS) and to implement combustion optimization software package for low NOx combustion. This paper presents an efficient NOx emissions model based on support vector regression (SVR), and compares its performance with traditional modeling techniques, i.e., back propagation (BPNN...

Performance Analysis of Coal fired Power Plants in India

With over 150GW of installed capacity and around 723.8 BUs of electricity generation during 2008-09, India remains the 5 largest consumer of electricity in the world. Coal fired power plants account for more than half of the installed capacity and caters to more than 65% of the power demand. Against the prevalent practice of ratio analysis being used for the performance estimation, the study us...

Suitability of Indian Coal For Coal-Fired MHD Generators

The electrical conductivity of seeded (with potassium) combustion products of six varieties of Indian coal with enriched air have been analytically evaluated to investigate the feasibility of using them as working fuels for coal-tired MHD generators. The analysis takes into account the effect of sulphur and ash on the conductivity of combustion products.

Cost analysis of a coal-fired power plant using the NPV method

The present study investigates the impact of various factors affecting coal-fired power plant economics of 210 MW subcritical unit situated in north India for electricity generation. In this paper, the cost data of various units of thermal power plant in terms of power output capacity have been fitted using power law with the help of the data collected from a literature search. To have a realis...
