Abstract: | The aerodynamic development of fully turbulent isothermal jets issuing from rectangular slot-burners was modelled by obtaining a solution to the Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations. A finite-volume method was used with the standard k–ε, RNG k–ε and Reynolds stress turbulence models. The slot-burners were based on physical models, which were designed to be representative of typical burner geometries found in tangentially-fired coal boilers. Two cases were investigated, in which jets from three vertically stacked rectangular nozzles discharged at 90° and then 60° to the wall containing the burner. The nozzle angle had little effect on jet centreline velocity decay, with the 60° nozzle showing a marginally higher rate of decay. The jets from the 60° nozzles were found to deviate slightly from their geometric axis slightly due to internal pressure redistribution in the flow at the nozzles. The simulations were validated against the physical models and were found to reproduce the flow field of the jets accurately with the Reynolds stress model producing the best results. |
