  1. Thermal Performance Analysis of A Furnace P M V Subbarao Professor Mechanical Engineering Department Test for Cooling Capacity of Furnace Surface….

  2. Further Geometrical Details of A Furnace

  3. Determination of Furnace Size •  = 30 to 50O •  > 30O •  = 50 to 55O • E = 0.8 to 1.6 m • d = 0.25 b to 0.33 b

  4. Heat Transfer in A Furnace • The flame transfers its heat energy to the water walls in the furnace by Radiation. • Convective Heat Transfer < 5%. • Only Radiation Heat Transfer is Considered for Performance Analysis!

  5. Simplified Approach • Emitted Radiation heat flux of flame: • Emitted Radiation = Available Heat • Heat flux absorbed by walls : Thermal efficiency factor, y. • The rate of heat absorption

  6. Coal fired furnace • Two functions of coal fired furnace: • Release of chemical energy by combustion of fuel • Transfer of heat from flame to water walls • Combustion space surrounded by water walls Furnace Exit Structure of water walls* Hot Exhaust gases Heat Radiation & Convection Flame Burner

  7. Tangential fired furnace* Down fired furnace Burner arrangement & flame shapes • An array of burner installed on walls or at corners of furnace • Fuel and combustion air projected from the each burner create a complex shape of flame. • Intense mixing of fuel and air stream at the centre Opposed wall fired furnace

  8. Classification of Radiation

  9. Types of Radiation from Flames • Tri-atomic gases - CO2, H2O and SO2 • Soot particles • Coke particles • Ash particles

  10. Radiation inside furnace • Types of radiation: Surface and volumetric radiation • Characterization of participating media: usually, the radiant energy is scattered, absorbed and emitted by tiny suspended particles or gases like CO2 and water vapor, such media are called participating media. • Gas radiation involved • Absorption: attenuation of intensity  absorption coefficient  • Emission: augmentation of intensity emission coefficient • Scattering scattering coefficient  • Radiant heat transfer occur from the source (Flame) to sink (water walls) in a furnace
