Full TextAbstract
Black liquor spraying is an important parameter for proper combustion in a recovery boiler. Understanding the spray characteristics helps the operator optimize combustion. An ideal spray minimizes carryover while maintaining a char bed shape that maximizes chemical reduction. Since measuring spray distribution and droplet size in-situ is very difficult, work has begun to develop a computer code (BLSpray) that can accurately predict liquor spray characteristics. This paper will briefly describe the code, and will discuss results obtained from varying liquor properties and nozzle configuration.
