A Review of Sub-models for Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Modelling of Clean Coal Technology

Abstract: Environmental drivers like carbon capture and other emission controls are creating a great opportunity for growth and adoption of Clean Coal Technologies (CCTs). Gasification and oxy-fuel combustion are more established and matured technologies out of several clean coal technologies suggested in the literature. Numerical simulations like Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling are playing crucial role in their design, development and adoption in the power industry. In the present paper, a review of some of the CFD works carried out by researchers from the academics and industries for gasification and oxy-fuel combustion is presented. The objective of this work is to provide a comprehensive reporton different sub-models required for accurate CFD modeling of gasification and oxy-fuel combustion
