The bias combustion technology has been widely used in the swirling burner. Take the distribution of the pulverized-coal concentration at the primary air outlet as the division principle, there are three kinds of bias combustion models: radial model with inside dense and outside lean, radial model with outside dense and inside lean, and circumferential model. Considering stable ignition and low NOx emission, at the phase of the pulverized-coal ignition, the dense pulverized-coal flow should be heated by the high temperature flue gas intensively and quickly to ensure the coal’s timely ignition and form an In-flame NOx reduction zone for low NOx emission. Hence the bias combustion technology should be in accordance with the recirculation zone. So the radial bias model with inside dense and outside lean suits to central recirculation zone while radial bias model with outside dense and inside lean suits to annular recirculation zone. The circumferential bias model suits to both recirculation zones. Furthermore, appropriate measures should be taken on the burner’s arrangement and furnace’s design to prevent the obvious increase of slagging problem and unburned carbon in fly ash when using bias and air staged combustion technology.

A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of a 600 MW opposed swirling coal-fired utility boiler has been established. The chemical percolation devolatilization (CPD) model, instead of an empirical method, has been adapted to predict the nitrogen release during the devolatilization. The current CFD model has been validated by comparing the simulated results with the experimental data obtained from the boiler for case study. The validated CFD model is then applied to study the effects of ratio of over fire air (OFA) on the combustion and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission characteristics. It is found that, with increasing the ratio of OFA, the carbon content in fly ash increases linearly, and the NOx emission reduces largely. The OFA ratio of 30% is optimal for both high burnout of pulverized coal and low NOx emission. The present study provides helpful information for understanding and optimizing the combustion of the studied boiler
