Abstract

The subject of this paper is the steam boiler nonlinear mathematical model. The furnace chamber heat transfer is modelled assuming that the flue gas temperature across the entire furnace chamber is constant. Only radiation heat transfer to the boiler waterwalls is modelled. Distributed parameter mathematical models are developed of the steam superheater individual stages: the superheater first stage, the platen superheater, the second and third stage of the superheater. In the same way, the boiler two-stage economizer is modelled. The flue gas and air temperatures downstream the air heater individual stages are determined using the ε-NTU method (effectiveness ε - the number of transfer units NTU).
