Flue Gas Cooling
نویسنده
چکیده
When waste heat is not utilized, cooling of flue gases in special cooling chambers becomes necessary, if the dust':'collecting and associated equipment is constructed of metal. The two most common methods of cooling are by dilution with ambient air, and by evaporation of water in the gas stream. Usually, they are combined. Load sharing depends largely on acceptable visibility of stack effluvia and upon economy. Automatic control of the cooling system appears necessary. Explanation of com putations with tabulations and graphs plus a description of an existing installation are included in the text.

Increasing Cooling Towers Heat Capacity by Flue Gas Introduction
In this paper the changes in the heat capacity of cooling towers has been investigated as a result of injecting combustion products of boilers. In the tower, the air is re-heated through mixing with hot flue gas after passing through the heat exchangers. As a result of this process, the draft of the cooling tower is increased. The additional produced draft depends on the ambient temperature and...

متن کاملFeasibility Study of the Thermal Performance Improvement of Natural Draft Dry Cooling Towers Due to Flue Gas Injection
In steam power plants, any improvement in the cooling towers thermal performance will cause the condenser's temperature to decrease; which in turn enhances the power plant's efficiency. Due to water shortage, many power plants all around the world rely on natural draft dry cooling towers (Heller type). In these cooling towers, condenser's exit hot water is pumped to vertical or horizontal finne...
متن کاملEnergy Savings Potential through Waste Heat Recovery from Flue Gas for Post Combustion Co2 Capture
Flue gas from a plant using fossil fuels contains CO2. Thus power/process plants using fossil fuels contribute to climate change if CO2 in flue gas is not captured. The process of CO2 capture from flue gas is called „postcombustion‟ CO2 capture. Existing plants may be retrofitted with this process to minimize CO2 emission. Amine solutions are mostly used for this process to scrub the flue gas. ...
متن کاملA Numerical Study on Using Air Cooler Heat Exchanger for Low Grade Energy Recovery from Exhaust Flue Gas in Natural Gas Pressure Reduction Stations
Heat EXchangers (HEX) that are used in City Gate Station (CGS) systems are modeled numerically to recover the exhaust waste heat. It was tried to find the best viscous model to obtain results in accordance with experimental results and to change the heat exchanger design. This HEX is used for recovering heat from exhaust flue gas with a mixture of 40% water and 60% ethylene glycol as the coolin...
