1 Wheaton, Zachary; Stroh, David; Krishnamoorthy, Gautham; Muhammad, Sami; Orsino, Stefano; Nakod, PravinA comparative study of gray and non-gray methods of computing gas absorption coefficients and its effect on the numberical predictions of oxy-fuel combustionComputational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are performed to model the radiation process in natural gas fired furnaces using different gray and non-gray radiation models. Simulations of two representative furnace cases (HTAC and OXYFLAM) were performed and the computed radiative fluxes compared w...
2 Smith, Philip J.A technology for measuring combustion efficiency of industrial & field flares (integrating measurements and simulations)2011-08-12Flare research over the past decade has increasingly illustrated that there is likely no one simple operational parameter (or even a few parameters) that will characterize the combustion behavior of flare flames.i Simple correlations are unobtainable because of the complexity of the nonlinear mixing...
3 Acceptable operating parameters for steam assisted flares at Purge RatesFlare vendors recommend that cooling steam should always be supplied to the steam injection equipment on steam assisted flare tips. However, the nomenclature of "cooling steam" properly describes only one aspect of this steam flow. Not only does this steam provide thermal protection to the steam inj...
4 Kodesh, Zachary; Fox, Scott; Franklin, JamesAccurate and reliable flare testing methods2011-08-30Recently the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), through The University of Texas (UT) initiated a project utilizing John Zink facilities to better understand the operating envelope of varying flare technologies across various process conditions. A large scale flare testing environment ...

9 American flame research committee (AFRC) international combustion symposium2011Burner retrofits in industrial boilers are an economical solution to achieving lower NOx levels with existing fired equipment. However, designing a next generation ultra-low NOx burner footprint that fits into an existing burner cutout continues to be an industry challenge in many applications. Buil...

12 Hu, Shengteng; Zeng, Dong; Sarv, HamidApplying laser-induced incandescence (LII) technique to soot volume fraction measurements for pyrolyzing pulverized coal2009Staged combustion and gasification of coal are conducive to soot formation. Presence of soot in combustion systems can affect heat transfer, pollutant formation, and unburned carbon levels.Development of an accurate soot production model requires high-quality experimental data. For this purpose, the...
13 Muhasilovic, M.; Duhovnik, J.; Deville, M. O.; Ciahotny, K.; Koza, V.Both LES and k-e turbulence-treatment in CFD-approaches for creation of the database on flare-stacks flame-behaviour2009There is an emerging importance to understand and to "map" the reacting complex-flows of the (larges-cale) flare-fires. In this study, the influence of the atmospheric events onto the flame-behaviour, has a start-up in investigation, by watching the development of the temperature-, velocity- and irr...
14 Henneke, Mike; Matos, MiguelCFD analysis of a ground flare system: wind and fence effects on air supply behavior and thermal radiation2011Thermal radiation emitted from ground flare installations is a safety consideration • The fence material must be selected to tolerate the high heat fluxes • The fence has an influence on air supply to the burners and can cause air circulation patterns within the fenced area

16 Seebold, James G.Combustion efficiency of industrial flares revisited the current status of this multivariate, multiphysics, multichemistry morass and what to do about it2011Last year, with its focus on "Industrial Flaring," TOTeM361 was the first in the IFRF TOTeM series to tap into an area which has been explored in AFRC Symposia for many years.2 Taking place 30 September - 1 October at the Sheraton Maui immediately following the AFRC 2010 Pacific Rim Combustion Sympo...
17 Mueller, Gary R.; Agrawal, Harshit; Caico, Chris; Olivacce, RonaldCombustion of mixtures: A modified IFC approach2011While most studies on flares have been done with single hydrocarbon fuels or binary mixtures, the reality of most industrial flares is that they see different mixtures of many gases. Over the past 5 years the International Flare Consortium (IFC) has been conducting research on just this issue. In a ...

21 Schmitt, DavidCorrectly modeling and calcutating combustion efficiencies in fired equipmentFired equipment includes furnaces, fired heaters, fired boilers, supplementary fired boilers, and many other types of equipment. But for the purposes of reviewing how the calculations are accomplished and other factors that may affect the results of the modeling, we will use a fired reformer furnace...

23 Lewis, Elliot-Sullivan; Hack, Richard; McDonell, VincentDevelopment of a modular supplemental burner for optimization of distributed generation/combined heat and power system efficiency2011Increased interest in distributed power generation has lead to increased interest in combined heating cooling and power (CCHP). One significant issue in implementing a CCHP is that electrical loads and heating or cooling loads are rarely synchronized. Duct burners are frequently used to provide addi...
24 Kretzschmar, SimonEnviromix_split_phase_applying_flameless_combustion_principles_to_pyrolysis_furnaces2011As the drive towards reduced NOx emissions accelerates, the need to promote synergy between all furnace components becomes paramount. One of the most exciting methods of reducing these emissions is through the application of the principles of flameless combustion. Through high rates of flue gas reci...
