Valmet Recovery Boiler Combustion Diagnostics application
The Valmet Recovery Boiler Combustion Diagnostics application utilizes Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate and visualize the state of the combustion inside the furnace. The application calculates a variety of process parameters which are impossible to measure in practice, using them to provide very valuable information about how the combustion process is actually happening. This information enables operators to make decisions about how to improve the current situation and optimize performance, availability and emissions.
For example, the diagnostics tool visualizes process parameters such as temperature fields, flow patterns, and black liquor droplet trajectories showing droplet hits on furnace walls, or how droplets escape the furnace, resulting in carryover.
