چکیده

This paper presents an approach to control pluggage of a coal-fired boiler. The proposed approach involves statistics, data partitioning, parameter reduction, and data mining. The proposed approach was tested on a 750 MW commercial coal-fired boiler affected with a fouling problem that leads to boiler pluggage that causes unscheduled shutdowns. The rare-event detection approach presented in the paper identified several critical time-based data segments that are indicative of the ash pluggage.

Detection of Events Causing Pluggage of a Coal-fired Boiler: a Data Mining Approach

This paper presents an approach to analyze events leading to pluggage of a boiler. The proposed approach involves statistics, data partitioning, parameter reduction, and data mining. Two independent data mining algorithms have been applied to detect both static and dynamic relationships among the process parameters. The multi-angle data mining approach increases the ability to locate rare event...

Multi-objective Optimization of Coal-fired Boiler Combustion Based on NSGA-II

NOx emission characteristics and overall heat loss model for a 300MW coal-fired boiler were established by Back Propagation (BP) neural network, by which the the functional relationship between outputs (NOx emissions & overall heat loss of the boiler) and inputs (operational parameters of the boiler) of a coal-fired boiler can be predicted. A number of field test data from a full-scale operatin...

Ash Fouling Monitoring and Key Variables Analysis for Coal Fired Power Plant Boiler

Ash deposition on heat transfer surfaces is still a significant problem in coal-fired power plant utility boilers. The effective ways to deal with this problem are accurate on-line monitoring of ash fouling and soot-blowing. In this paper, an online ash fouling monitoring model based on dynamic mass and energy balance method is developed and key variables analysis technique is introduced to stu...

Model Identification for Industrial Coal Fired Boiler Based on Linear Parameter Varying Method

ABSTRACT: System or process identification is a mathematical modeling of systems (processes) from test or experimental data. Process models obtained from identification process can be used for process simulation, analysis, design of safety systems and control systems for the process. This paper presents the Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) modeling of 210MW Industrial Coal Fired Boiler which is c...

Feasibility of 100 Percent Rdf Firing for Power Generation

The title of the paper purports to discuss the feasibility of 100% RDF firing for power generation. It is implied that it is possible to fire 100% RDF in a single boiler. However, for the case study cited, the author suggests a much more elaborate system for a 16 MW system. The flow sheet suggests 80% heat input from RDF and 20% from coal. He also suggests that three boilers handle the RDF. Thi...
