Module
combustion Technology
Objectives of the module
Students are able to account for incinerators energy and materials for over-stoichiometric conditions. They can calculate the fuel requirement and the composition of the exhaust gas for a predetermined heat generation. You can calculate criteria for stable ignition , flashback of the flame , the flame blown off and minimum ignitionv. They know the conditions for explosions and detonations. They can use it to interpret thermal and safety incinerators.
