Hot air stove air volume problem
Thread Content
I am now calculating a hot blast stove. I saw that most hot blast stove calculations are based on the introduction of 1.3 times excess air and diesel fuel for combustion. According to this calculation method, the hot air volume I obtained after combustion is about 500m3/h under standard conditions, and the temperature is about 1600°C. The flue gas temperature at the outlet of the hot blast stove is required to be around 800°C, and fresh air must be introduced to cool the flue gas. So how to calculate the amount of fresh air? Can I directly introduce a sufficient amount of air much larger than 1.3 times to burn with diesel, so that the flue gas temperature at the outlet of the hot blast stove directly reaches about 800°C? Please help me with my colleagues, thank you!
No, sending such a large air volume directly from the burner will cause combustion to deteriorate.
