Modelling NOx-Formation in Combustion Processes
نویسنده
چکیده
As the regulations of pollutant emission is getting more and more strict, models of pollutant formation, as a part of system level models for control design, are needed. In this thesis NOx (nitrogen oxides) formation is modeled. A method is developed to mix equilibrium and non-equilibrium reaction equations to model NOx formation in combustion processes. This algorithm reduces high-index DAE systems by introducing ``reaction invariants''. Two models are built with help of this algorithm which describe NOx formation during combustion in a cylinder in a spark ignition car engine and in a gas turbine (for more information about the combustion models see [4] and [7]). The models use both equilibrium and nonequilibrium/dynamical reaction equations. A rough verification of the cylinder model is also done.

Three-Dimensional Modeling of Combustion Process, Soot and NOx formation In a Direct-injection Diesel Engine
This paper is presented to study the combustion process and emissions in a direct injection diesel engine. Computations are carried out using a three-dimensional model for flows, sprays, combustion and emissions in Diesel engines. Interactions between combustion and emissions with flow field are considered and it is shown that soot mass fraction increases at regions with low turbulence inten...

Control of nitric oxides (NOx) is one of the key elements in designing combustion systems because of the important role on ozone layer destruction and smog formation. Because of the sensitivity of thermal NO mechanism to temperature, a practical and scientific method for thermal NO reduction is decreasing the flame temperature. Dilution is one way to reduce maximum temperature in the combustion...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Mathematical Model for Prediction of Pollutants Emission in D. I. Diesel Engines
Major pollutants emission from Direct-Injection (D.I) diesel engines are predicted by means of a mathematical model. In order to construct such a model, an integral Multi-Zone Combustion Model (MZCM) is formulated, which basically consists of jet mixing and combustion submodels. In MZCM, variation of injection pressure is considered. Also time period of ignition delay is predicted by considerin...

The reduction of NOx-formation in biomass fired grate furnaces requires the development of numerical models. To represent the variety in scales and physical processes playing a role in the conversion, newly developed submodels are required. Here, a submodel for the reverse combustion process in the solid fuel layer on the grate is described. The submodel is shown to give good predictions for th...

This paper presents some of the results of the modeling and simulation of an industrial furnace under the conventional combustion as well as under the highly preheated and diluted air combustion (HPDAC) conditions. The results are obtained using a computer program written by authors in FORTRAN language. It was found that, the HPDAC offers a more uniform and relatively moderate gas temperature p...
