Experimental Investigation on Furnace Burner Design for Thermal Power Plant Using CFD

The furnace burner is designed and analysis has done to perform for different key parameters like burner velocity, burner angle, burner size and its configuration. The analysis of the above parameters is combined for the best combination of parameters with the objective function to maximize mixing efficiency in the burner which ultimately produces efficient combustion and reduces the losses in the mixing stage. The efficient combination of parameters produces cost saving design for better performance of overall plant. The base is design studied for different design parameters with objective function of increasing the turbulence intensity which may directly enhances the flame stability for proper mixing of fuel and air which leads to better combustion efficiency. This paper work can be extend for finding out the distribution of temperature inside the combustion chamber and emission can be predicted like CO, NOx by solving chemical kinetics with the model.
