Abstract

The flame image observation and analysis has been investigated for combustion monitoring and management of the pulverized coal firing for thermal power plant, especially for lower nitrogen oxide generation and safer operation. We aimed at obtaining the relationship between burner flame image information and emissions of nitrogen oxide and unburned carbon in furnace utilizing the flame image processing methods, by which we quantitatively determine the conditions of combustion on the individual homers. Its feasibility test was undertaken with Samchonpo thermal power plant #4 unit which has 24 burners, through which the system was observed to be effective for evaluating the combustion conditions and continuous monitoring to prevent future loss of ignition.
