Aimed at cost saving and pollution reduction, a novel desulfurization wastewater evaporation treatment system (DWETS) for handling wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) wastewater of a coal-fired power plant was studied. The system's advantages include simple process, and less investment and space. The feasibility of this system has been proven and the appropriate position and number of nozzles, the spray droplet size and flue gas temperature limitation have been obtained by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. The simulation results show that a longer duct, smaller diameter and higher flue gas temperature could help to increase the evaporation rate. The optimal DWETS design of Shangdu plant is 100 μm droplet sprayed by two nozzles located at the long duct when the flue gas temperature is 130 °C. Field tests were carried out based on the simulation results. The effects of running DWETS on the downstream devices have been studied. The results show that DWETS has a positive impact on ash removal efficiency and does not have any negative impact on the electrostatic precipitator (ESP), flue gas heat exchanger and WFGD. The pH values of the slurry of WFGD slightly increase when the DWETS is running. The simulation and field test of the DWETS show that it is a feasible future technology for desulfurization wastewater treatment.

In this paper, a collision model between atomized droplets of agglomeration solution and particles is established. On this basis, the effects of flue gas temperature, atomized droplet diameter and other factors on the particle agglomeration process are studied. In addition, the evaporation model of agglomeration solution in the flue of a power plant is established for the coal-fired unit of power plant. Through CFD software, the variation of flow field velocity, temperature and pressure in the flue is simulated to determine whether the chemical agglomeration technology has negative impact on the actual operating conditions of the power plant. The simulation results show that the velocity and pressure of the flow field in the flue have no obvious change after the agglomerating agent is injected. Besides, the temperature drop of about 7°C. The droplets evaporate completely at a distance of 7-8 m after spraying. The evaporation time of droplets is within 1.6 s.

In order to study the effect of dust removal in the electrostatic precipitator under the influence of change of temperature and air moisture of flue gas, the ultrasonic atomization and electrical heating has been adopted for simulated gas to change its air moisture and temperature. The specific resistance of fly ash of fluidized bed boiler, the V-j characteristics of the precipitator model and the efficiency of dust removal has been tested in gas working conditions. The measured results of dust specific resistance shows that: when the temperature of gas at range of 100°C to 150°C, the specific resistance of dust was lower when the air moisture is at 23.73% than at 5.21%, especially when the gas temperature is below 120°C, the specific resistance of dust reduce more,and it can reach the orders of magnitude at1010Ω·cm when the moisture of 23.73%; then keep the temperature at 150°C and make the moisture increased, the specific resistance of dust is decreased, however it is still more than 1011Ω·cm when the moisture is increased to 23.73%. The measured results of V-j characteristics of the precipitator model shows that: when the moisture keeps at 23.73% and the temperature is below 120°C, the electric field does not occur the phenomenon of anti-corona. The test result of the efficiency of dust removal indicated that: when we make the moisture increased to 23.73% and the gas temperature below 120°C, the efficiency of dust removal shows a significant increase. The results confirmed that we can improve the purification efficiency of high resistivity dust through flue gas humidification and proper temperature maintain.

There exist certain limitations to research the law and influence factors of the nitrogen oxides formation only with the help of field tests, because the nitrogen oxides formation of the boiler is influenced by various factors. The flow, combustion mathematical models interrelated and so on are established taking the 410t/h boiler fired tangentially as a prototype by the use of the fluent software. All the mathematical models are verified and modified with the aid of routine field test data, and the accuracy and reliability of the mathematical models are improved. Then NOx formation performance is stimulated in allusion to the influence factors without field test conditions. The mathematical simulation results show that mathematical models can provide a sufficient theoretical basis to analyze accurately combustion and NOx formation law in furnace, and the deficiencies of field tests have been made up.

In order to facilitate system design and performance analysis, a virtual prototype for metro train electropneumatic brakes is proposed. A virtual braking environment that consists of a three-car train model and six electropneumatic brakes model is elaborated. The virtual braking environment can be used to research the relation between braking response and electropneumatic brake’s parameters and to simulate axle loading transfer. By comparing the simulation results with bench test data, the electropneumatic brake model is proven to be quite accurate. Based on the proposed virtual prototype, a test train brake is designed, and a couple of field tests are carried out. The average deceleration of electropneumatic compound service brake at the initial speed of 45 km/h is 0.83 m/s2, the braking distance is 94 m, and that of pure air service brake at the speed of 43 km/h is 0.64 m/s2, the braking distance is 111 m. The field test results satisfy the test train requirements, which further proves the effectiveness of the proposed virtual prototype.

The desulfurization wastewater evaporation technology with flue gas has been widely applied to dispose of desulfurization wastewater. This paper investigates the effect of flue gas flow rate and temperature, wastewater flow rate and initial temperature, and droplet size on the evaporation performance of the desulfurization wastewater in a spray drying tower without deflectors. The results show that the flue gas flow rate and temperature affect the evaporation performance of desulfurization wastewater. The larger flow rate and higher temperature of flue gas correspond to the faster evaporation speed and the shorter complete evaporation distance of the wastewater droplet. Decreasing the flow rate and increasing the initial temperature of the desulfurization wastewater is advantageous to enhance the evaporation speed and shorten the complete evaporation distance of the wastewater droplet. Reducing the droplet size is beneficial to improve the evaporation performance of the desulfurization wastewater. The orthogonal test results show that the factors affecting droplet evaporation performance are ranked as follows: flue gas flow rate > wastewater flow rate > flue gas temperature > wastewater initial temperature > droplet size. Considering the evaporation ratio and the complete evaporation distance, the optimal setting is 14.470 kg/s for flue gas flow rate, 385 °C for flue gas temperature, 0.582 kg/s for wastewater flow rate, 25 °C for wastewater initial temperature, and 60 μm for droplet size. These studied results can provide valuable information to improve the operational performance of the desulfurization wastewater evaporation technology with flue gas.
