Combustion Control System Course
Introduction:
The course provides a comprehensive overview of boilers, utility power plant cycles, and combustion fundamentals. It begins with a concise tutorial on control theory and then delves into an in-depth examination of combustion control, feedwater control, and steam temperature control.
This course is highly beneficial for individuals involved in power plant controls and all related control equipment. It also serves as a valuable refresher for experienced personnel seeking to enhance their knowledge and skills in this field.
Course Objectives:
This course provides basic knowledge of combustion fundamentals including the burning of fossil fuels, municipal incineration, the burning of solid wastes and catalytic incineration as well as NOx and SOx emission control systems. The students successfully completing this course will understand combustion principles and the design parameters influencing the achievement of combustion efficiency. The students will be able to evaluate combustion design as typically contained in permit applications. Evaluation is for the purpose of judging whether a proposed design will meet regulatory standards. The course emphasizes problem sessions in which students make the basic calculations involved in checking a combustion system design. A scientific calculator is required for these exercises.
