Abstract:
A control system, for use with a power plant having a mill for pulverising material for input into a combustion system of the power plant, the control system comprising: a first sensor (12), for recording a first parameter of a first output from the combustion system; a second sensor (14), for recording a second parameter of a second output from the combustion system; an adjuster system (16), for adjusting and recording at least one variable parameter of the combustion system; a state estimator (18) component operable to receive a first signal relating to such first parameter, a second signal relating to such a second parameter and a third signal relating to such at least one variable system parameter, the state estimator component being operable to use the first signal, second signal and third signal to produce a material parameter indicator signal (20) and a system state indicator signal (22); and an output component (24) operable to receive such a material parameter indicator signal and such a system state indicator signal and to combine said material parameter indicator signal and system state indicator signal to produce an output control signal.
Abstract:
A burner assembly combines oxygen and fuel to produce a flame. The burner assembly includes an oxygen supply tube adapted to receive a stream of oxygen and a fuel supply tube arranged to extend through the oxygen tube to convey a stream of fluidized, pulverized, solid fuel into a flame chamber. Oxygen flowing through the oxygen supply tube passes through oxygen-injection holes formed in the fuel supply tube and then mixes with fluidized, pulverized, solid fuel passing through the fuel supply tube to create an oxygen-fuel mixture in a downstream portion of the fuel supply tube. This mixture is discharged into the flame chamber and ignited in a flame chamber to produce a flame.

Abstract:
A method to provide renewable energy by utilizing aluminum, which is easy to store and stably suppliable, as a fuel without harming the environment or human body. Aluminum powder and oxygen are introduced into a combustion chamber and subjected to stationary combustion. The stationary combustion of aluminum is conducted by controlling either or both amounts of aluminum powder and oxygen introduced into the chamber. The amount of the aluminum powder is controlled by the amount of aluminum powder sucked into a jet stream of a carrier gas that introduces the powder into the combustion chamber, or by the amount of an impurity to be mixed with the powder. The amount of oxygen is controlled by the mixing ratio of oxygen to a diluent gas introduced simultaneously. The alumina from the combustion is recovered, reduced to aluminum, and recycled as a fuel.
Abstract:
Methods and a device for monitoring the combustion process in a power station are provided. An actual concentration distribution of a material and/or an actual temperature distribution are measured in the combustion chamber. Conclusions are drawn regarding the type of combustion material on the basis of the measured actual concentration distribution or temperature distribution. A concentration distribution or temperature distribution of a material that has been determined using a sample fuel is compared with the measured actual concentration distribution or temperature distribution.

A method and a device for monitoring the combustion of fuel in a power station are provided. An actual concentration distribution of a material in a combustion chamber is measured, the actual concentration distribution is evaluated, taking into consideration a combustion stochiometry, and conclusions are drawn regarding a composition of the fuel on the basis of the evaluation that has been carried out.
