    600 MW对冲锅炉超低负荷富氧燃烧数值模拟研究

    Numerical investigation of oxygen-enriched combustion for 600 MW opposed firing boiler under ultra-low load

    • 摘要: 深度调峰下锅炉低负荷稳燃效果较差,向助燃空气中掺氧强化燃烧,是提升锅炉低负荷稳燃性能的有效技术手段。以600 MW对冲锅炉为研究对象,采用计算流体力学(CFD)方法,在对模型进行详细验证的基础上,系统研究了20%负荷下燃烧器一次风、内二次风、外二次风、中心风氧气体积分数及燃尽风占二次风总风量比例的影响。结果表明:提高一次风氧气体积分数对提升稳燃的效果最为明显,能显著提高峰值与主燃区温度,但一次风氧气体积分数不宜超过25%;提升内二次风氧气体积分数可强化燃烧器根部着火,但稳燃效果不如一次风增氧;外二次风增氧对峰值温度影响有限,但可提升炉膛整体温度和促进燃尽;中心风增氧对稳燃贡献最小;提升燃尽风比例可显著降低炉尾NO。具体而言,一次风氧气体积分数由21%升至25%,炉膛峰值温度由1742 K提高至1812 K,但25%氧气体积分数下,炉尾NO质量浓度升高;内二次风氧气体积分数从21%升至25%时,炉膛峰值温度升至1780 K,NO质量浓度先降低后升高,22%氧气体积分数时最低为276 mg/Nm3;外二次风氧气体积分数从21%增加到25%时,NO质量浓度先降低后升高,22%氧气体积分数时最低为317 mg/Nm3;当燃尽风比例从20%提高至36%时,NO减排达34.9%。总体而言,推荐一次风氧气体积分数为24%、内/外二次风氧气体积分数22%,以及燃尽风占二次风总风量比例36%,可有效兼顾超低负荷富氧稳燃与低氮调控要求。研究可为新能源制氢副产氧消纳、富氧助燃锅炉深度调峰技术应用提供理论支撑。

       

      Abstract: Poor combustion stability is generally encountered during low-load boiler operation under deep peak regulation. Oxygen enrichment of the combustion air is regarded as an effective approach to enhancing combustion and improving combustion stability at low loads. A 600 MW opposed firing boiler is investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). After the numerical model is thoroughly validated, the effects of the O2 volume fractions in the primary stream, inner secondary stream, outer secondary stream, and central stream, as well as the ratio of overfire stream to the total secondary stream flow rate, are systematically evaluated at 20% load. The results demonstrate that primary stream oxygen enrichment provides the most pronounced improvement in combustion stability, with both the peak temperature and the temperature in the main combustion zone being significantly increased; however, the O2 volume fraction in the primary stream should not exceed 25%. Ignition near the burner root is enhanced by increasing the O2 volume fraction in the inner secondary stream, although the improvement in combustion stability is less pronounced than that achieved by primary stream oxygen enrichment. Only a limited influence on the peak temperature is observed with outer secondary stream oxygen enrichment, whereas the overall furnace temperature is increased and burnout is promoted. The smallest contribution to combustion stability is obtained by central stream oxygen enrichment. In addition, the NO mass concentration at the furnace outlet is significantly reduced by increasing the overfire stream ratio. Specifically, when the primary stream O2 volume fraction is increased from 21% to 25%, the peak temperature is increased from 1742 to 1812 K; however, the outlet NO mass concentration increases at the O2 volume fraction of 25%. When the inner secondary stream O2 volume fraction is increased from 21% to 25%, the peak temperature reaches 1780 K, while the NO mass concentration first decreases and then increases, with a minimum value of 276 mg/Nm3 at an O2 volume fraction of 22%. When the outer secondary stream O2 volume fraction is increased from 21% to 25%, the NO mass concentration also first decreases and then increases, with a minimum value of 317 mg/Nm3 at an O2 volume fraction of 22%. When the overfire stream ratio is increased from 20% to 36%, NO emissions are reduced by 34.9%. Overall, O2 volume fractions of 24% in the primary stream and 22% in both the inner and outer secondary stream, together with an overfire stream ratio of 36%, are recommended to simultaneously ensure stable oxygen-enriched combustion and effective NO control under ultra-low-load conditions. The results provide theoretical support for by-product oxygen utilization from hydrogen production using renewable energy and for the application of oxygen-enriched combustion technology to deep peak regulation of boilers.
