Coal Fired Boilers having Direct Tangential Firing System: Combustion Tuning in High Ash Pulverized Coal Fired Boilers having Direct Tangential Firing System

Pulverised coal combustion involves two main sequel, but possibly overlapping, stages. - (1)rapid heating and devolatilisation as a result of pyrolysis followed by (2) combustion of char residue emanating from the devolatilisation stage. In practical combustion situations, such as in large pulverized coal combustor different particles can undergo concurrently different processes such as pyrolysing, oxidising reactions under different temperature regime. Combustion tuning in boilers will lead to optimizing the performance more so in high ash coal fired boilers. In high ash coal fired boiler having direct tangential firing system proper combustion will ensure minimum water wall deposits and thus an optimal furnace outlet temperature.
