Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this paper the results obtained by the numerical method of modelling of Ekibastuz coal burning in BKZ-420 combustion chamber of Kazakhstan’s coal-fired Power Plant are presented. They are devoted to the numerical simulation of combustion processes in the furnace boiler BKZ-420. Boiler’s steam generating capacity 420 T/h. Boiler has six vertical pulverized coal burners arranged in two levels with three burners on the front wall of the boiler. High ash, low-grade coal from Ekibastuz burned in the furnace. Its ash content is 39 %, volatile – 24 %, humidity – 5 %, highest calorific value is 16 750 kJ/kg. In this research the main harmful gases distribution characteristics of the concentration of carbon oxides (CO and CO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and oxygen O2 are shown.
