Modelling of Nitric Oxides and Carbon Monoxide Emissions from Bagasse-Fires Boilers

该项目旨在开发计算模型，以预测糖厂锅炉燃烧甘蔗渣产生的一氧化氮和一氧化碳的排放。甘蔗渣燃烧不会产生温室气体排放，这种燃料的清洁高效燃烧对制糖业和澳大利亚都非常重要。该项目将SRI的直接锅炉测量机会与该大学的建模专业知识相结合，为这些物种开发燃烧动力学模型。这些模型将被整合到先前开发的计算流体动力学-炉的燃烧代码中，以提供作为燃烧器运行条件和燃料参数函数的排放预测能力。

The project aims to develop computational models to predict emissions of nitric oxides and carbon monoxide from sugar-mill boilers burning bagasse. Bagasse combustion does not contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and clean and efficient combustion of this fuel has become very important for the sugar industry and for Australia. The project combines the opportunity of direct boiler measurements by SRI with the modelling expertise at the University to develop combustion-kinetics models for these species. The models will be incorporated into the previously developed computational fluid dynamics - combustion code of the furnace to give the capability of emission prediction as a function of burner operating conditions and fuel parameters.
