Increasing utilization of intermittent energy resources requires flexibility from energy boilers which can be achieved with advanced control methods employing dynamic process models. The performance of the model-based control methods depends on the ability of the underlying model to describe combustion phenomena under varying power demand. This paper presents an approach to the simplification o...

In this paper computational analysis of circulating fluidized bed combustion using the fluent software is analysed. This work is concerned about gas–solid two-phase mixtures flowing upwards through the fast beds. The procedures studied are applicable to all types of fluidized-bed boilers. The type of information resulting from various ways of analyzing the pressure and temperature in fluidized ...

However, these other means (e.g., speaker actuation) tend to be bulky, have limited operating range, or have other undesirable side effects. In comparison, liquid fuel modulation is compact, more practical, and can deliver the most energy with the least effort. based control approach recently found to be effective for suppressing combustion instabilities in gas turbines. A control law formulate...

This paper analyzes the vibration behavior of an in-line 4-cylinder, 4-strokes, internal combustion turbocharged direct injection gasoline engine. A detailed multi-body numerical model of the engine prototype was used to characterize the whole engine dynamic behavior, in terms of forces and velocities. The crank train multi-body model was created starting from engine geometrical data, and the a...

2 Abstract`A three-dimensional reacting flow modeling approach is presented for predictions of compression ignition, combustion, NOx and soot emissions over a wide range of operating conditions in a diesel engine. The ignition/combustion model is based on a modified eddy dissipation concept (EDC) which has been implemented into the KIVA 3V engine simulation code. The modified EDC model is used ...

The use of robust and accurate Eulerian/Eulerian formulations in the modeling of reactive two-phase flow would be a major step forward in the framework of turbulent combustion modeling with massively parallel supercomputers. Therefore, the ability of the Eulerian multi-fluid model to capture all stages of turbulent spray combustion has been tested and compared with a usual Lagrangian formulatio...

This paper reports a modelling work on the existing experimental data of single coal particles combustion process [1,2]. Two kinds of coal particles (a high-volatile bituminous coal / a lignite coal) are injected in a drop-tube furnace, ignited and burned in quiescent O2/N2 and O2/CO2 atmospheres with oxygen mole fraction varying from 20% to 100%. Ignition delay time, particle life time and par...

homogenous charge compression ignition (hcci) is a mode of combustion in ic engines in which premixed fuel and air are ignited spontaneously. there is a belief that hcci engines have a great potential to improve fuel consumption and reduce nox emissions. in this study, a single zone, zero dimensional, thermo-kinetic model has been developed and a computer program with matlab software is used to...
