View Factor Orientation (or View factor or shape factor) plays an important role in radiation heat transfer. View factor is defined as, "fraction of radiation leaving surface 'i' and strike 'j' ". Summation Rule (View Factor) If there is are similar surfaces 'i' and 'j' , then: Blackbody Radiation Exchange Radiation Exchange between Opaque, Diffuse, Gray surfaces in an Enclosure 1. Opaque 2. Surfaces 3. Two surface enclosure Radiation Shield It is used to protect surfaces from radiation act like a reflective surface.

Fluidized Bed Combustion Technology
Fluidized bed combustion (FBC) is defined as, "a combustion technology used to burn solid or low grade fuels".
Fuel particles are suspended in a hot bed of particulate materials (like ash, sand, limestone).
Since this allows coal plants to burn at cooler temperatures, less NOx is also emitted.
We have large coal reservoirs but it has high Sulphur content ↣ to deal with this issue, we have Fluidized Bed Combustion Technology.
This technology is used because:
Sulphur emission decreases by Lime.
NOx emission decreases by decrease in temperature.
Circulating Type Fluidized Bed Boiler
It is defined as, "a boiler which works on the fluidized bed combustion technology for producing heat". There are two types of Circulating Type Fluidized Bed (CFB) Boiler:
Circulating Type ↣ Particle velocity ranges between 5 - 10 m/s.
Bubbling Type ↣ Particle velocity ranges between 1 - 3 m/s.
Construction
Bed Drain Tube ↣ used to remove ash.
Grid Plate ↣ where combustion occurs.
Submerged Tube Bank ↣ for producing steam.
Plenum Chamber ↣ used for storing air.
Working
Air from fan enters furnace↣ pass through bed of finely divided particles (sand) ↣ air velocity increases, sand particles vibrate (which heat air)↣ desired fuel is added (first secondary then primary fuel is added) ↣ when self sustained temperature of coal is added, we cut primary fuel ↣ then coal is added ↣ initial combustion starts ↣ unburned coal particles leaves furnace ↣ Primary cyclone capturing then back into furnace.
Loop Seals ↣ maintains the pressure balance between the furnace and exit of the separators allowing the solid to flow back into the furnace.
High Performance particle steam heat exchanger ↣ Interax which extracts high temperature heat from hot particles in CFB to produce high temperature superheated steam.
Ques: What does fluidized means?
Ans: When air (or gas) is passed through finely divided bed of solid particles (sand), the particle remain undisturbed at low velocity. As velocity increase, particles start to vibrate remain suspended in air stream.
Fluidized combustion ↣ (840 - 950)℃ much lower than ash fusion temperature, ash and NOx reduces.
Ash can be used as Cement Raw Material.
Advantages
Very low quality fuel is used. Like coal, biomass, tyres).
Coal is used in coarse phase (not in powdered form).
Solid Mechanics OR Mechanics of Materials OR Strength of Materials: It is the study of mechanics of body i.e. forces and their effects on deformable solids under different loading conditions. Deformable Body Mechanics: It is the study of non-rigid solid structures which deform under load. Deformation/Distortion ⇾ change of shape and size OR have some relative displacement or rotation of particles. It happens when we apply combined load. Rigid Body Motion ⇾ Translation or rotation of particles but having constant distance between particles. Since deformation occur at particular load. Below this load, every body is considered as rigid body . Types of Load: Point Load ⇾ Load apply on a single point i.e. concentrated load. Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) ⇾ Load remains uniform throughout an area of element like beam. Varying Distributed Load (VDL) ⇾ Load varies with length with constant rate. Moment ⇾ It measures the tend...
Flexible Mechanical Elements Flexible mechanical elements are defined as, " I nelastic elements to transmit power over large distances " . Purpose of using FME's is to simplify the design of a machine and reduce the cost . Used as replacement for gears, shafts, bearings, other rigid power-transmission devices. It can absorb shock loads and vibrations. Positive Drive ⇛ no slip between driver and driven component. Element Life ⇛ no infinite life and should be replaced at the first sign of deterioration (check wear, aging, loss of electricity). Performance of Different Transmission Types Belts or Belt Drives Belts are used where center distance between shafts is large. Pulley axes must be separated by a certain minimum distance (depend upon belt type and size) to operate properly. Because of belt flexibility and damping capability ⇛ reduce the transmission of unwanted shock and vibration between shafts. Power and torque capacities are limi...
Mechanical Injection System: Used to inject fuel into the combustion chamber. Fuel speed > air speed at delivery point to atomize fuel. Amount of fuel delivered into the air stream going into the engine is controlled by pump which forces the fuel under pressure. A device used to initiate and control the combustion process is called Mechanical Injection System. Functional Requirements of Injection System: Metering of Fuel: Used to control fuel to meet speed and load requirements of the engine. Injection Timing: Have proper injection timing to obtain max. power, fuel economy and proper burning. It is done by Camshaft or Push rod (Rocker Arm) Mechanism . Proper Control of Injection Rate: To get desired heat release pattern during combustion. Proper Atomization of Fuel: Proper making of droplets to make best Air/Fuel mixture. Proper Spray Pattern: Distribution of droplets to ensure rapid mixing of fuel & air. Uniform Distribut...
