SBIR Phase I: Computational Steering for an Industrial Boiler and Furnace Simulation

9860645 这个小型企业创新研究第一阶段项目将评估使用计算转向的可行性，以减少模拟化石燃料燃烧工业锅炉和熔炉内湍流反应流的时间。我们的战略包括开发一个计算工作台，其中紧密集成了用于全面湍流反应流模拟的工具;前缘可视化;简单的模型修改。新的工具将基于：反应工程国际的湍流，两相反应流模型;和SCIRun解决问题的环境开发的犹他州大学科学计算和成像研究小组。 新工具的目标市场是分析化石燃料蒸汽发生器和其他燃烧系统。我们的目的是创建一个计算工具，可以把详细的反应流计算流体动力学（CFD）模拟的力量到工程师手中，不是CFD专家。电站锅炉代表了一个有吸引力的市场，因为它们的资本成本高，预期寿命长，并且越来越重视降低成本和污染控制。

9860645 This Small Business Innovative Research Phase I project will evaluate the feasibility of using computational steering to reduce the time to simulate turbulent reacting flows within fossil-fuel fired industrial boilers and furnaces. Our strategy includes developing a computational workbench with tightly integrated tools for comprehensive turbulent Reacting Flow simulation; leading edge visualization; simple model modification. The new tool will be based on: Reaction Engineering International's turbulent, two phase Reacting Flow models; and the SCIRun problem-solving environment developed by the University of Utah Scientific Computing and Imaging research group. The targeted market-sector for the new tool is the analysis of fossil-fuel fired steam generators and other combustion systems. Our intention is to create a computational tool that can put the power of detailed Reacting Flow Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations into the hands of engineers that are not CFD experts. Utility boilers represent an attractive market because of their high capital cost, long life expectancy and increased emphasis on cost reduction and pollution control.
