Abstract

This paper discussed the rationality of coal and rice husk co-combustion. Using ICEM software, a two-dimensional model of the riser has been established for circulating fluidized bed experimental table. Using Fluent software, numerical simulation has been made for the combustion reaction of different proportions of rice husk mixed with coal. The results show that, with the increase of rice husk ratio, both the combustion temperature and the amount of nitrogen oxides decrease and the effect is gradually reduced. In this simulation, the rice husks occupying about 30% is a reasonable proportion.
