Simulation Study on Combustion Characteristics of Water Tube Boiler with Different Type of Fuel

This paper is to study the type of boiler use in industry. Water tube type boiler is commonly used for heating and power generation in the industry. The operation of water tube boiler from fuel selection, fuel separation, combustion and generation of steam requires deep knowledge and skill in order to ensure smooth running of boiler system. Combustion, occurs in the combustion chamber is considered critical part in boiler operation in converting fuel energy into chemical energy. Therefore, simulation study on combustion phenomena in the combustion chamber is essential in determining heat transfer rate from hot gas to the boiler tubes
