The efficient development of a low-NOX, low-unburned component combustion method
applicable to various kinds of fuel for coal combustion boilers requires simulation technology
capable of predicting multiphysics including pulverized coal combustion, gaseous combustion and
radiative heat transfer with high accuracy. Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems, Ltd. (MHPS) has
utilized measurement results obtained in from small-scale basic combustion experiments to
actual-scale burning tests for actual equipment performance-matched implementation of model
development/ verification. This has gradually enabled combustion simulation technology to be
applied to the development of various burners.
