Based on the theory of moderate or intense low-oxygen dilution (MILD) combustion, a 3D steady-state CFD model coupling dual flue gas recirculation and dispersion combustion was developed to describe the flow field, combustion temperature field, wall temperature distribution, and NOx concentration field during the operation of a novel U-type radiant tube (N-URT). A user-defined function (UDF) method was implemented to simulate the dilution of O2 concentration in the combustion air due to external flue gas recirculation (E-FGR). The effects of the E-FGR ratio on combustion characteristics and NOx emission were evaluated. The simulated results were consistent with experimental results. The simulated NOx concentration at the outlet was reduced to 105.5 mg/m3 at 8% O2, which was about 35.2% lower than the conventional combustion method. The study found that when the E-FGR ratio was increased from 0 to 25%, the standard deviation of wall temperature decreased from 30.3 °C to 23.3 °C, and the non-uniformity coefficient decreased from 0.2598 to 0.2183, indicating an improvement in temperature uniformity. However, the thermal efficiency decreased from 82.1% to 76.2%. Moreover, at higher E-FGR ratios, the volume of the high-temperature region (above 1500 ℃) gradually decreased, and both the maximum flame temperature and the outlet NOx concentration decreased sharply. Regression equations for the E-FGR ratio (β) on the maximum combustion temperature (Tmax) and the outlet NOx concentration (CNOx) were obtained, and an E-FGR ratio greater than 13.4% was recommended to meet the emission requirements.

The authors regret to inform that Table 1 in the final (citable) version of our article [Fuel 346 (2023) 128321] published in Fuel has a serious error; some key data in Table 1 (page 4, Section 2.2) corresponded incorrectly to variables. This was mainly due to our carelessness and was not caught in time while reviewing proofs for our publications. The correction is necessary to improve the academic accuracy of the article and for ease of reference for the readers. We are therefore publishing this correction. Specifically, the pre-exponential factor Ar and activation energy Ea of 2CO + O2 → 2CO2 should be 2.239 × 1012 1/s and 1.7 × 108 J/kg·mol, respectively. The pre-exponential factor Ar and activation energy Ea of 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O should be 9.87 × 108 1/s and 3.1 × 107 J/kg·mol, respectively. Thank you for your understanding and the previous efforts of all the reviewers and editors.

To solve the problem of low efficiency of NOx emission reduction in self-reflux burners, this study is based on the concept of coordinated control of self-reflux burner structural and thermal parameters. After completing the structural design and optimization of thermal parameters, we continue to adjust the two key structural parameters: the nozzle axis distance and the length of the cylindrical section, to minimize NOx emissions. These are the two parameters that chiefly affect the mixing of flue gas and fuel gas. The results show that increasing nozzle axis distance can delay the mixing of gas and air and create a more uniform oxygen concentration field for the combustion process. The maximum combustion temperature is reduced from 1973.65 K to 1935.88 K and the volume fraction of NOx in the flue gas is reduced from 188.08×10−6 to 143.47×10−6. However, compared with the nozzle axis distance, the length of the cylindrical section of the burner has little effect on the mixing of the flow field. Under different cylindrical section lengths, the maximum combustion temperature does not change more than 3 K, and the volume fraction of NOx in the flue gas changes within 5×10−6.

Based on the design concept of a fourth-generation smart pipe network system, this paper innovatively proposes a new TOTS (Two-supply/One-return, triple pipe structure) arrangement method for district heating systems. Moreover, to accurately predict the heat loss due to the pipeline operation of the multi-pipe system, based on the multipole calculation method, a new heat loss theoretical analytical model for the TOTS was created; additionally, a corresponding three-dimensional numerical simulation model was established, which was analyzed and numerically solved. The results showed that in comparison with thermal loss data measured by Danfoss et al., the above analytical and numerical models have a high accuracy, and the deviation is within 2%. Additionally, through calculations, it was found that the distance between the heating pipes is an important factor that affects the total heat loss from the new multi-control heating system and the actual heat exchange between pipes.

Organic and inorganic phase change materials (PCMs) are considered potential materials for thermal energy storage (TES) with different phase change characteristics. In this study, a novel organic-inorganic composite phase change material (PCM) called disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate-lauric-palmitic acid (D-LA-PACM) was prepared. Expanded graphite (EG) was selected as the support material, and the novel organic-inorganic form-stable PCM called D-LA-PAPCM/EG was prepared using the vacuum adsorption method. Differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, leakage testing, melting and solidification cycle testing, thermal conductivity testing, scanning electron microscopy observation of the micromorphology, and other characterization methods were used to study the micro structure and morphology, thermal physical parameters, thermal conductivity, stability of the PCMs, and the comprehensive material properties of D-LA-PAPCM under the composite action of EG. Results indicated that the melting and freezing temperatures and latent heats of D-LA-PAPCM/EG were measured to be 31.6°C and 34.3°C and 142.9 and 142.8 J/g, respectively. Although some of the lauric-palmitic acid (LA-PA) and disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate (DHPD) separated in the multiple porous structures of EG after 1000 cycles, they could still absorb and release latent heats independently, with D-LA-PAPCM/EG still exhibiting good thermal stability. The thermal conductivity of D-LA-PAPCM/EG was 1.361 W/(mK). Therefore, the material and thermal properties of the prepared D-LA-PAPCM/EG indicate that it could be well used as a feasible material for energy-saving phase change floor units in indoor TES systems.
