Abstract

Efficiency and Energy saving are the key problems in power generation system from the view point of fuel consumption, but also for prevent the environment of the Earth. In the power plant the gas duct is the major part. The gas duct is for release the flues gas which is produced by the boiler. In this project we will design the gas duct and also analysis the duct. The main objective of the project is CFD analysing the new economizer duct. The analysis result is compared with the existing design. The vanes are used to distribute the gas equally from the economizer. The effective heat transfer is done by reducing tubes number in the existing economizer. The economizer design is designed by using SOLIDWORKS software and the analysis is made by ANSYS software.
