    Co-firing ammonia with coal is emerging as a transitional technology in the power industry for the major reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Although ammonia has the disadvantages of low combustion reactivity and the generation of nitrogen oxides, it can effectively reduce greenhouse gas due to the generation of only moisture and nitrogen after the combustion. Therefore, for the efficient co-firing of the coal and ammonia in the power plant system, it is essential to evaluate the effect of co-firing ammonia on the boiler system. We selected the 870 MWe supercritical coal-fired boiler system and developed the process simulation model of the target boiler system. In this study, process simulation of the target boiler system was performed according to the ammonia co-firing ratio of 0, 5, 10, 20, and 30%. In addition, the effect of ammonia co-firing on the boiler thermal performance was evaluated according to the load condition and the quality of coal. As the ammonia co-firing ratio increases, the flue gas flow rate and the radiation and convective heat transfer rate decrease. Accordingly, the main and reheat steam temperatures decrease. Although the reduction of carbon dioxide is quantitatively confirmed according to the co-firing ammonia, the boiler thermal efficiency decreases due to the increase in the amount of moisture in the flue gas. - COLLAPSE

    Numerical simulation on thermal decomposition reaction of n-dodecane in a cylindrical tube is conducted by changing mass flow rate. Thermal decomposition mechanism adopted in the present study is the proportional product distribution (PPD) model for n-dodecane, which is a 1-step global mechanism. All of simulations are performed atr the same temperature of 665 K and pressure of 3 MPa with the wall heated at 580 W. The mass flow rate of n-dedecane increases from 3 to 4 kg/h. In addition, numerical simulations with kinetics mechanisms with and without pyrolysis are conducted and their results of reactive flow fields are compared with each other. The physical properties of the mixture produced by n-dodecane decomposition are evaluated along the tube. The conversion rate of the fuel and the volume of endothermic reaction decreases as the mass flow increases. - COLLAPSE

    In this paper, combustion instability in a reverse-flow gas turbine combustor was analyzed using a 1D network model. Two different approaches of flame transfer functions were considered; one is a classical n-τ model and the other is a modified model considering the time delay distribution. As a result of constructing a network model by rearranging acoustic elements in the flow direction, the analysis results of frequency and mode distribution similar to the measurement were obtained. In addition, the feedback instability prediction results considering the time delay distribution have shown modeling results closer to the experiment compared to the classical n-τ model. - COLLAPSE

    This study focused on calculating the turbulent flame speed in a V-shape turbulent premixed flame using a circular fractal turbulence generator. In previous studies [Part. I turbulent flow characteristics in a Non-Reacting Field], [Part. II characteristics of turbulent flame structures], the non-reactive turbulent flow and turbulent flame structure for the V-shape flame of a fractal turbulence generator were investigated in detail. Two types of turbulent burning velocities are evaluated : local displacement and consumption speeds. The local consumption speed is calculated via the image processing of flame surface density. The results show that turbulent burning velocity increases much with fractal grids as compared with the conventional grids perforated plate and mesh. Finally, it was confirmed that the correlation between the turbulent flow factor and the two turbulent burning velocities of each turbulence generator was collapsed well with a specific correlation equation. - COLLAPSE

    A governing equation is derived from the equation of the reaction progress variable for the conditional flamelet structure and the turbulent burning velocity in turbulent premixed combustion. Direct numerical simulations are conducted for constant density flames to validate the newly derived conditional flamelet equation. Good agreement is shown between the conditional flamelet equation and the flamelet structures and turbulent burning velocities from DNS. They are validated for laboratory flames as well by numerical solutions of the modified laminar premixed flame code in Cantera. Reasonable agreement is shown with a tuning constant for turbulent diffusivity to consider the uncertainty involved in each experimental setup and conditions in the references. - COLLAPSE
