Abstract:
This paper analyzes the possibility of reducing the cold end corrosion in boilers and furnaces by using a new type of air combustion pre-heater. Cold end corrosion appears due to catalytic oxidation of the sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide and then due to the sulfuric acid condensation at dew point. Calculating dew points of various acid gases and options for reducing cold end corrosion of heat recovery exchangers are presented. For avoiding the cold end corrosion we design a new type of air combustion pre-heater for boilers and furnaces. Also, the tube skin temperature of the first row of pip

Abstract:
A vertically fired natural-draft petroleum-refinery crude-oil process heater was modified to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions by installing staged combustion air lances. Baseline NO emissions firing refinery gas before modification were measured to be 100 to 125 parts per million by volume, dry, corrected to 3 percent oxygen. Staged combustion air lances were installed to bypass combustion air around the burners to achieve staged combustion. With the modification, an average reduction of 64 percent in NO emissions was observed over a 30-day test period, with NO emissions of 25 to 50 p

Air pre-heater and economizer are heat transfer surfaces in which air temperature and water temperature are raised by transferring heat from other media such as flue gas. Hot air is necessary for rapid combustion in the furnace and also for drying coal in milling plants. So an essential boiler accessory which serves this purpose is air pre-heater. The air pre-heater is not essential for operation of steam generator, but they are used where a study of cost indicates that money can be saved or efficient combustion can be obtained by their use.

Abstract:
Burning, more formally combustion, denotes burning in oxygen and more commonly in air (which is 20 per cent oxygen). Combustion is a special case of a more general term, ‘oxidation’, which originally meant reaction with oxygen, not necessarily accompanied by a flame. The rusting of iron is also an oxidation, but we don’t normally think of it as a combustion because no flame is involved. Oxidation now has a much broader meaning than reaction with oxygen, as I shall unfold in Reaction 5. For now, I shall stick to combustion itself. To achieve combustion, we take a fuel, which might be the methane, CH4, 1, of natural gas or one of the heavier hydrocarbons, such as octane, C8H18, 2, that we use in internal combustion engines, mix it with air, and ignite it. The outcome of the complete combustion of any hydro-carbon is carbon dioxide and water but incomplete combustion can result in carbon monoxide and various fragments of the original hydrocarbon molecule. All combustions are ‘exothermic’, meaning that they release a lot of energy as heat into the surroundings. We use that energy for warmth or for driving machinery. Another example of an exothermic combustion is provided by the metal magnesium, which gives an intense white light as well as heat when it burns in air. A part of the vigour of this reaction is due to the fact that magnesium reacts not only with oxygen but also with nitrogen, the major component of air. You should be getting a glimpse of the broader significance of the term ‘oxidation’ in the sense that the reaction need not involve oxygen; in magnesium’s case, nitrogen can replace oxygen in the reaction. Magnesium foil was used in old-fashioned photographic flashes and in fireworks. The latter now mostly use finely powdered aluminium, which is much cheaper than magnesium and reacts in much the same way. In what follows you could easily replace aluminium with magnesium if you want to think fireworks. For the whole of the following discussion you need to be familiar with oxygen, O2, 3, a peculiar molecule in several respects.

Ensuring consistent, reliable diesel engine startups in cold temperatures is of utmost importance in a number of applications. Under extreme temperatures, the use of glow plugs is complemented by intake manifold heaters. In these, the energy released from combustion increases the intake air temperature before the air enters the main combustion chamber. Since the process also alters the stoichiometry of the fuel-air mixture at the intake ports, the pre-heater operation must be optimized in order to guarantee successful and reliable in-cylinder combustion during engine startups.

A previous study of an indirect fired air turbine cogeneration system has been extended to include the concept of regeneration. The effect of regenerator effectiveness and full regeneration as well as partial regeneration on system performance parameters (such as fuel utilization efficiency, power-to-heat ratio and second-law efficiency) are examined. An important conclusion of this study is that a regenerative gas turbine cogeneration system is capable of producing large power-to-heat ratios for various process conditions requiring the use of only moderate compressor compression ratio and mod

Abstract:
Meeting the increasingly stringent emission and fuel efficiency standards is the primary objective of the automotive research. Lean/diluted combustion is a promising avenue to realize high-efficiency combustion and reduce emissions in SI engines. Under the diluted conditions, the flame propagation speed is reduced because of the reduced charge reactivity. Enhancing the in-cylinder charge motion and turbulence, and thereby increasing the flame speed, is a possible way to harness the combustion process in SI engines. However, the charge motion can have a significant effect on the spark ignition
