Coalfired boilers are mainly operated at either subcritical or supercritical conditions. From a thermophysics perspective, two phase mixtures of water and steam are replaced by a single supercritical fluid when the boiler pressure increases above the critical pressure of MPa and the corresponding saturation temperature of 374 °C (Shen and Cheng, 2004).

Combustion optimization of a pulverized coalfired boiler is a complex process requiring indepth knowledge of combustion, operation of boiler firing system and other factors affecting emissions and unit performance. For best results, combustion tuning needs to be performed before combustion optimization tests are conducted.
Coal Combustion Processes . In the CFD model, the coal combustion process consists of inert heating and drying, devolatilization, volatile combustion, and char combustion, and each step is performed sequentially. In the boiler, coal particles are transported via air into the furnace and heated when exposed to a hightemperature environment.
Paul Reed. Boiler combustion is the study of how fuels are burned in boilers that heat water for steam. There are many applications for steam boilers, including chemical process heating, steam heat for buildings and hot water, and steam to drive electrical turbine generators. Combustion is the reaction of fuels with oxygen in air to create heat ...

Combustion air is classified into primary air, secondary air, and overfire air (OFA), and is fed from a primary air fan and a forced draft fan, as indicated by (12) and (13), after being heated by a air preheater (8) before entering a furnace (3) in Figure 1.. The operation data of the coalfired power plant consist of momentary values measured every hour, collected over approximately 6 years.
combustion air supply. Coal combustion can be separated into three categories: grate firing, fluidised bed firing and suspension firing. The majority of smaller boiler units are stoker or grate fired (Payne and others, 1996). Industrial or utility boilers are designed to burn fuel to produce steam.
