Air staging application effects on overall steam boiler operation
This paper presents the results of calculation system of main processes in power steam boiler, before and after application of air staging. Modified air injection scheme was implemented during 2015 on the power steam boiler within unit 1 of TPP Kostolac B. Measurements performed on site showed that...

This paper presents the results of calculation system of main processes in power steam boiler, before and after application of air staging. Modified air injection scheme was implemented during 2015 on the power steam boiler within unit 1 of TPP Kostolac B. Measurements performed on site showed that applied reconstruction led to a permanent loss of the steam boiler power. This study was performed in order to define the cause of such an occurrence and to consider the possibility for regaining the designed steam parameters along with keeping NO concentration in prescribed limits. This paper x discusses the influence of repositioning the air injection location on processes within the furnace. Furthermore, the influence of the redistribution of injected air-flow along the furnace height on important boiler operation parameters has been analyzed. Analysis showed that, with appropriate dosing of air along the height of the existing furnace, it is possible to achieve the optimum of the boiler's operation parameters.
