Numerical Optimization Study of Combustion and Heat Transfer Characteristics in Municipal Solid Waste Incinerators.

The efficient and clean utilization of urban waste can substitute for partial fossil fuels and reduce total carbon emissions. Fuel combustion is divided into three stages. Before the fire, the fuel is put into the furnace to reach the preparation stage of the fire temperature, the combustion stage takes place after the ignition temperature is reached, and finally, the combustion is completed.

Experimental Study on Gas-Solid Two-Phase Flow Characteristics of a Vertical Cyclone Combustor System.

According to the design and operational parameters of the cyclone liquid slag-discharging boiler, an experimental platform for the cyclone burner was designed and constructed in a cold state based on the principle of similarity. The experimental study investigated the effects of parameters, such as swirl-vane angles, coal concentration, operating parameters, and particle size, on the flow distribution and vertical riser resistance characteristics of the vertical cyclone burner. The results showed that there were differences in flow distribution among the cyclone burners, and the most uniform flow distribution was achieved when the swirl-vane angle of the primary air was 30°.
