A Combustion Process Simulation of a Stoker-type Refuse Incinerator

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new modeling method for stoker-type incinerators of refuse incineration plants in order to analyze dynamic behavior of refuse combustion process and refuse movement. The refuse incinerator model is represented by a mathematical model taking account of moving, drying, pyrolysis, gasification, and combustion of refuse, It can simulate the dynamic behavior of refuse combustion process and refuse movements at the change of running commands, e. g. refuse inputs, combustion airs, and stoker movements.
