Process Heaters, Furnaces and Fired Heaters: Improving Efficiency and Reducin...Belilove Company-Engineers
A process heater is a direct-fired heat exchanger that uses the hot gases of combustion to raise the temperature of a feed owing through coils of tubes aligned throughout the heater. Depending on the use, these are also called furnaces or red heaters. Some heaters simply deliver the feed at a predetermined temperature to the next stage of the reaction process; others perform reactions on the feed while it travels through the tubes.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

of fuel and air
Excess combustion air
complete combustion
too much air results in heat loss
Lack of combustion air

6. Kiln Control: Combustion 6
Types of Firing Systems
Direct Firing System
Semi-direct Firing System
Indirect Firing System (newest technology)
7. Kiln Control: Combustion 7
Direct Firing System
Cooler
Kiln
One fan to vent the mill, convey the coal, classify the ground
coal and blow it into the kiln (no control of flame shape)
All moisture goes to kiln
High primary air (30-35% of combustion air) resulting in high
SHC.
Relatively safe, simple operation and low capital cost
8. Kiln Control: Combustion 8

Combustion Air in Indirect Firing
System
COMBUSTION AIR
Primary air w. impulse
~4% axial air
~2% swirl air
~9% fuel transport air
plus inleakage
Secondary air
~85%
11. Kiln Control: Combustion 11
Primary Air - MOMENTUM
Required to “drive” flame
High momentum shortens, stabilizes and
compacts the flame
momentum Turbulence at burner tip
Higher turbulence results in better mixing of
fuel and air
12. Kiln Control: Combustion 12
Primary Air - Axial and Swirl Air
Axial Air
minimum flow to cool down the burner pipe
increase or decrease the flame temperature which
changes flame length
Swirl Air
increase or decrease the mixing of air and fuel,
allowing a higher or lower flame temperature,
which changes the shape of the flame
13. Kiln Control: Combustion 13
Primary Air - Transport Air
Transport Air
for solid fuel transport only
does not vary with fuel flow
must be at the minimum flow
sufficient velocity at burner tip is required for flame
momentum
for solid fuel transfer, velocity should be 24 to
30 m/s (too low => fuel deposition, too high =>
abrasion and wear)
14. Kiln Control: Combustion 14
Primary Air - In leakage
In leakage at the kiln hood
an expensive nuisance
significant impact on kiln production, kiln stability,
flame length, specific heat consumption and ID fan
capacity
15. Kiln Control: Combustion 15
Secondary Air
Heat recuperation
higher SAT => lower SHC (kcal/kg)
Flow controlled by ID fan
Temperature controlled by grate speed
clinker bed depth
Kiln hood pressure
low is better for heat recuperation
air inleakage increases with more negative
pressure
constant kiln hood pressure => stabilizes flame
16. Kiln Control: Combustion 16
Secondary Air
How much secondary air is required
total combustion air required minus primary air
Where is it coming from
from the hottest cooler chambers
Impact of secondary air on flame
low SAT => long, lazy flame
17. Kiln Control: Combustion 17
Mixing of Fuel and Air
Variables to control
Pulverized solid fuel
fineness
moisture
Natural gas
gas pressure
Fuel oil atomization
pressure
temperature
viscosity
Faster, more effective mixing => efficient combustion
18. Kiln Control: Combustion 18
Ignition

diesel 225 C
coal 350 C
nat. gas 500 C
coke 800 C
heat
(ignition)
fuel

20. Kiln Control: Combustion 20
Flame - Definition
Controlled combustion (burning) of a
determined fuel
All flames have a short plume of air and fuel
Fuel ignites at end of plume and forms the
flame
21. Kiln Control: Combustion 21
Flame - Definition
A large volume of very hot gases controllably generated
CO2
SO2
NOx
H2O
22. Kiln Control: Combustion 22
Flame - Temperature
Flame temperature is affected by:
O2 level
secondary air temperature
type of fuel
flame temp.
nat. gas 1700 C
oil 1900 C
coal 2200 C
23. Kiln Control: Combustion 23
Flame - Heat Transfer Rate
Rate at which MJ (calories) are exchanged to
the material (load), coating and refractory
Heat transfer mechanisms:
radiation from flame to load
convection from kiln gases to load
conduction from refractory/coating to load
24. Kiln Control: Combustion 24
Flame - Shape
Shapes:
short
long
snappy
lazy
Shape controlled by:
type and position of burner
type of fuel
primary air (axial, swirl air, impulse)
ID fan flow, secondary air temp.
O2
25. Kiln Control: Combustion 25
Flame - Shape
Goal
the shortest and highest temperature flame without
adversely affecting clinker quality, coating formation,
ring formation, refractory life or causing damage to
kiln discharge area
A hot flame is always shorter than a cold flame
Always wait for a stable kiln to make changes
to the flame shape and discuss changes with
other operators and Production management
26. Kiln Control: Combustion 26
Combustion State
Kiln exhaust gases:
O2
CO
SOx
CO2
SO2
NOx
H2O
27. Kiln Control: Combustion 27
Combustion State - O2
Ideal O2 level determined from:
clinker quality
refractory protection requirements
shell temperature
Goals:
keep O2 as low as possible
maintain constant O2 (which maintains constant kiln
temperature profile)
low CO
28. Kiln Control: Combustion 28
Combustion State - CO
Can we accept some CO?
Most plants operate with some CO since it is difficult
to achieve complete combustion of fuel.
CO caused by lack of combustion air and poor
fuel preparation (fineness, viscosity, mixing,
process of pulverization)
Incomplete combustion => longer and colder
flame
29. Kiln Control: Combustion 29
Combustion State - SOx (SO2/SO3)
Represents sulfur oxidation from all fuel types
SO2 formation decreases with more oxidizing
combustion
SO3 volatilization increases with hotter burning
zone and length of flame
SOx reacts faster than CO to changes in
combustion
30. Kiln Control: Combustion 30
fuel + air => kiln flame + exhaust gases
C + S + O2 => heat + O2 + CO2 + SOx
Summary
Combustion quality issues
heat quality => calcination
flame quality => clinkerization
Keep O2 as low as possible, but too low O2 results in:
kiln instability
incomplete combustion, high CO
sulfur volatilization
short refractory life
poor clinker quality
31. Kiln Control: Combustion 31
Summary
High O2
high SHC (kcal/kg)
long flame
possible production limitation
SO2 is inverse of O2
Combustion Goal:
short, hot flame (but beware of refractory life)
with low O2 and low CO
