AB - Black smoke emission and soot nucleus production in a stoker-fired boiler by  secondary air are studied numerically and experimentally. Temperature field,  flow field, and soot nucleus concentration are predicted numerically. It  reveals that the secondary air gives about 10% reduction of the soot nucleus  production, and the black smoke emission is controlled evidently.
