摘要
The present work introduces a way of optimizing the low NOx combustion using the neural network and genetic algorithms for pulverized coal burned utility boiler. The NOx emission characteristic of a 600 MW capacity boiler operated under different conditions is experimentally investigated and on the basis of experimental results, the artificial neural network is used to describe its NOx emission property to develop a neural network based model. A genetic algorithm is employed to perform a search to determine the optimum solution of the neural network model, identifying appropriate setpoints for the current operating conditions and the low NOx emission of the pulverized coal burned boiler is achieved.
