Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) is one of the most efficient methods to reduce NOx emissions from coal-fired power plants. This paper deals with an optimal design tower type SCR-deNOx facility for a 1000 MW coal-fired power plant. Combined with computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the configuration of the baffles geometry was studied with spatial constraints. Flow field was regulated at the ammonia injection grid (AIG) with the dual aim of reducing difficulties in implementing the non-uniformed ammonia (NH3) injection strategy and achieving a more homogeneous distribution at the catalyst entrance. A flow model test (FMT) was carried out at a laboratory scale to verify the design results. The results of the flow model test are in good agreement with the computational fluid dynamics. It is indicated that small-sized baffles are recommended for installation at the upstream side of the facility as the optimal design and ability to regulate the flow field at the ammonia injection grid makes it an effective way to deal with spatial constraints. This paper provides a good reference for optimizing the tower type SCR-deNOx facilities with spatial constraints.

By using the computational fluid dynamics code, FLUENT, Numerically simulation is investigated for Youngshou power plant. Under the constant ambient temperature, the effects of different wind speed and wind direction on the thermal flow field are qualitatively considered. It was found that when considering about the existing and normally operating power plants, the thermal flow field is more sensitive to wind direction and wind speed. Based on the above results, three improved measures such as: increasing the wind-wall height and accelerating the rotational speed of the fans near the edge of the ACC platform and lengthen or widen the platform are developed to effectively improving the thermal flow field, and enhanced the heat dispersal of ACC.

In order to enhance the efficiency of the Savonius rotor, this paper designs a new type of Savonius rotor with a rectifier. By using Computational Fluid Dynamics software to simulate and optimize the various parameters which affect the efficiency of the rotor. The sliding mesh method is applied here. The Cp-λ curves of wind turbine with different structural parameters are obtained after numerical simulation of flow field. On this basis, this paper gets the optimal structural parameters. And the results indicated that this new type of Savonius rotor has great improvement of efficiency compared with the traditional Savonius-type rotor.

Honeycomb ceramic is the key component of the regenerative system. The numerical simulation was performed using FLUENT, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, to compare simulation results to the test data. The regenerative process of a honeycomb ceramic regenerator was simulated under different conditions. Experiments were carried out on honeycomb regenerators that are contained in a methane oxidation reactor. The calculated temperatures of flue gas inlet were compared with the ones measured. The tendency of the temperature is the same as the experiment.
