Starting kettle by the plazma burner

Abstract

In this paper the plasma technology of kettle PG350 starting is presented. Mathematical modeling was used for solving of this problem, when mixture coal was ignited of plasma burner. The computation was simulated on simplified kettle PG 350 geometry. Coal mixture was ignited by air about 7000 K instead of plasma. Task was defined as turbulent flow of air and coal particles with heat transfer and chemical reactions. In software Fluent 6.3 flow can be solved by turbulent models and heat transfer by radiation models. Mathematical model of continuous phase and discrete phase, which characterizes adrift of coal particle, was created. Combustion was solved by models of combustion in Fluent. Mathematical model was solved by finite volume method.
