Computational uid dynamics (CFD) are used to understand complex thermal ow regimes in power plants. The
thermal power plant may be divided into dierent subsectors and the CFD analysis applied to critical equipment/components - mainly dierent types of heat exchangers - which are of crucial signicance for ecient
and trouble free long-term operation of the plant.

The economiser is a crucial component for ecient performance of a thermal power plant. It is a non-steaming
type of heat exchanger which is placed in the convective
zone of the furnace. It takes the heat energy of the ue
gases for heating the feed water before it enters the boiler
drum. The thermal eciency/boiler eciency largely depends on the performance of the economiser. CFD analysis helps in optimizing the thermal performance of the
economiser by analysing the pressure, velocity and temperature distribution, and to identify the critical areas for
further improvement with the result obtained by CFD
analysis.
