Herein, a large lime-making company was experiencing at one of their plants some mixing problems with one of their burners with swirl vanes at the end-pipe shown on the left of the figure below. AlphaThermal helped find a solution by designing a bluff-body insert to increase tip velocity which, in turn, improved recirculation and mixing as shown in the CFD modeling. A shorter, more intense flame resulted along with the needed high temperatures required for production increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"526\" height=\"445\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-wf-4.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"100\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/?attachment_id=100\" class=\"wp-image-100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-wf-4.png 526w, https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-wf-4-300x254.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 526px) 100vw, 526px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"502\" height=\"356\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-cfd-3.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"101\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-cfd-3.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/?attachment_id=101\" class=\"wp-image-101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-cfd-3.png 502w, https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-existing-burner-cfd-3-300x213.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 502px) 100vw, 502px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">Existing Burner<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"554\" height=\"440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BATinsert-wf-3.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"102\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/?attachment_id=102\" class=\"wp-image-102\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BATinsert-wf-3.png 554w, https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BATinsert-wf-3-300x238.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"484\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BAT-insert-cfd-3.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"103\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BAT-insert-cfd-3.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/?attachment_id=103\" class=\"wp-image-103\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BAT-insert-cfd-3.png 630w, https:\/\/www.alphathermal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/burner-optimization-study-ATP-BAT-insert-cfd-3-300x230.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">Alpha Thermal Burner with BAT Insert<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A specific example can be found in one of our projects on Burner Optimization Studies.
