The circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler has some problems to scale up. Several engineering solutions have been proposed by a few suppliers which had advanced CFB technology. Large-scale CFB design concepts from different suppliers were reviewed and compared. Points of the hydrodynamic and heat recovery were summarized and discussed for developing the guideline of the large-scale circulating fluidized bed boilers.

Part load operation usually covers large periods of the total operation time on the economic ground and electricity demand in small-scale boilers. Performance analysis of part load behavior is very important for the purpose of boiler operation optimization. A simple thermal calculation approach is applied to predict performance of a pilot-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler at part load operation. Verification has been carried out by comparing between calculation results an operation data of the boiler.

With the increasing trend in CFB(Circulating Fluidized Bed) boiler scale, the EHE(External Heat Exchanger) must be adopted to the large-scale boilers to recover insufficient heat transfer surface. In this study, the numerical analysis model for EHE in commercial 300MWe CFB boiler was developed with the inclusion of mechanistic model, which enables the heat transfer prediction. Finally, the calculated absorbed heat and derived heat transfer coefficient are evaluated through the verification with experimental data.

This study examined the emission characteristics of impure gas-like hydrogen sulfide and siloxane contained in landfill gas (LFG) and investigated the effect of impure gas on LFG utility facilities. As a result of an LFG component analysis from eight landfills in the same environment, hydrogen sulfide averaged 436 ppmv (22-1,211 ppmv), and the concentration of total siloxane averaged 7.95 mg/$m^3$ (1.85-21.18 mg/$m^3$). In case of siloxane concentration by component, the ratio of D4 (average 3.79 mg/$m^3$) and D5 (average 2.64 mg/$m^3$) indicated the highest level. Different kinds of scales were found on the gas air heater (GAH) and inside the boiler. The major component of scale from the GAH was $Fe_2O_3$ of 38.5%, and it was caused by hydrogen sulfide. Other scale was found on the bottom and the wall of the boiler and the scale was silicon dioxide of 92.8% and 98.9%. The silicon dioxide scale was caused by combustion of siloxane. As a result of a scanning electron microscopy analysis, the structure of the silicon dioxide scale from the boiler was an immediate filamentous type. Consequently, as silicon dioxide scale is bulky, such bad effects were worsening, as an interruption in heat conduction, increase in fuel consumption, damage to the boiler by overheating, and clogged emission pipeline could occur in LFG utility facilities.

이 논문은 보일러 운전중에 일어나는 결함요소의 하나인 스케일형성을 감소하기 위한 연구이다. 스케일의 결함은 보일러 튜브의 과열로 보일러 파열에 치명적인 영향을 미치거나, 보일러내부의 수의 순환 불량으로 내부의 물흐름에 영향을 미쳐 내부의 수의 불균등을 가져오기도 한다. 그리고 스케일은 보일러 재료보다 열전달이 되지 않음에 따른 에너지손실도 가져와 지구 온난화의 환경에 영향을 끼친다. 이러한 스케일의 형성을 방지하거나 제거하기 위하여 한국정부에서는 보일러수질관리를 위하여 2005년도에 스케일부착을 방지하거나 제거할 수 있는 장치를 시설하도록 하였다. 이러한 스케일형성 방지 및 제거하기 위한 기법에 관한 연구는 1821년 감자 전분에 의한 스케일형성 감소에 의한 연구를 시작으로 그 후 많은 연구가 있어왔다. 1994년 한국에 러시아 음향연구소의 한 과학자로부터 개발된 초음파 스케일 방지장치가 소개된 이래로 다양한 보일러에 보급되기 시작했다. 초음파 스케일방지 장치가 성능을 발휘할 수 있는 조건을 실증할 필요가 있다. 보일러는 대부분 원형 곡면의 본체와 튜브로 구성 되어 있다. 보일러의 구성 요소 중 스케일결함 가장영향을 많이 미치는 원통형에 대한 실증을 실시하였다. 그 결과 초음파의 일정음압과 주파수에 도달하여야 스케일형성에 영향을 미친다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Predicting coal combustion by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) requires a combination of complicated flow and reaction models for turbulence, radiation, particle flows, heterogeneous combustion, and gaseous reactions. There are various levels of models available for each of the phenomena, but the use of advanced models are significantly restricted in a large-scale boiler due to the computational costs and the balance of accuracy between adopted models. In this study, the influence of coal devolatilization model and turbulent mixing rate was assessed in CFD for a commercial boiler at 500 MWe capacity. For coal devolatilization, two models were compared: i) a simple model assuming single volatile compound based on proximate analysis and ii) advanced model of FLASHCHAIN with multiple volatile species. It was found out that the influence of the model was observed near the flames but the overall gas temperature and heat transfer rate to the boiler were very similar. The devolatilization rate was found not significant since the difference in near-flame temperature became noticeable when it was multiplied by 10 or 0.1. In contrast, the influence of turbulent mixing rate (constant A in the Magnussen model) was found very large. Considering the heat transfer rate and flame temperature, a value of 1.0 was recommended for the rate constant.

As one of the main technologies for carbon capture and storage in power generation, oxy-coal combustion is being developed for field demonstration in Korea. This study presents the results of numerical simulation for combustion in a single-wall-fired 100 $MW_e$-scale boiler proposed for the initial design of the demonstration plant. Using a commercial CFD code, the detailed combustion, flow and heat transfer characteristics were assessed both for air-mode and oxy-mode combustion. The results show that stable combustion can be achieved in the dual mode operation with the current boiler configuration. However, the differences in the flow pattern and heat transfer between the two combustion modes need to be considered in the design and operation which is mainly due to the larger density and specific heat of $CO_2$ compared to $N_2$. Further development of the boiler design is required using improved numerical modeling for radiative heat transfer and combustion.

Boiler is a hazardous equipment to have potential explosion ail the time. And not only it has malfunction at explosion. it lead to people death but also secondary accident such as explosion and fire. Therefore, this equipment should not be broken for keeping its own function. And also, high level of safety should be kept in the process of the use not to be malfunctioned. A large scale of accident due to boiler explosion can be preventive in advance. Boiler fracture is occurred by instant expansion (approximately 1700 time) from quick evaporation of rater in boiler, due to pressure decrease in boiler Emitting energy from it is tremendous and it is so dangerous because of its high temperature. Secondary explosion such as fire is also a main hazard occurring at fuel supply place. If any devices with high pressure is broken, then not only boiler vessel but also components of it are spread with high speed, causing secondary accident. This study is to analyze integrally accident cause of fire and flue tube boiler to have occurred pressure fracture actually, to show countermeasures to prevent accident loss from the fire and flue tube boiler.
