Computer Program to Simulate the Thermal Characteristics of Heat Recovery Incinerators.

Abstract

The computer program, HRI, is described. This model simulates the thermal characteristics of energy (heat) recovery incinerators. The program takes descriptions of the fuel and of the incinerator as inputs then predicts system temperatures, steam generation rate, and energy recovery efficiency. There are options to include primary or secondary waterwalls, a water/firetube boiler, or combinations of these heat exchangers. Both starved and excess air operations are considered. Keywords: Fortran; Mathematical models; Combustion Chambers.
