Abstract

In the era of increasing renewable energy (RES) adoption and energy market development, the dynamic and flexible operation of power units based on pulverised coal-fired boilers is becoming essential. Numerical calculations and computer simulations are crucial in optimizing combustion processes, improving energy efficiency, and minimizing harmful atmospheric emissions, thereby reducing negative environmental impacts.
