Original Abstract

The present work is focused on numerical modelling of grate combustion of solid fuels by means of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods. A one-dimensional transient numerical model of combustion in an experimental reactor is implemented into a computer program. A method for control of mass and energy balance over the system is developed and applied to a series of simulations of heat-up and pyrolysis of wheat straw in order to evaluate the effect of convergence criteria on total mass and energy imbalance.
