Abstract

Air has most important function in biomass boiler system. Instead of supplying air required for combustion, it also functions to dissipate fuel in order to have wider heating surface. Turbulence created is necessarily to be controlled to avoid excessive or too lack of air being supplied into the system. Therefore, analysis on turbulence pattern and rate of air injected is needed in order to understand their relationship toward combustion performance. Using analysis performed, optimization can be predicted. Standard K-ɛ model of turbulence will be used in this analysis. The whole project will depend most of computer application which consist of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Solidwork 2008 software. Parameters and systems definitions are provided by ENCO DANSTOKER (M) sdn bhd, a local company which run biomass steam boiler using empty fruit bunch as fuel. Several problems have been detected in their current design and operating system. Through this project, those flaws will be analyzed and overcome.
