High Turndown Coal Nozzle Assemblies for Unsupported Low Load Coal Firing

  1. Renewables and volatile grid demand force coal plants off-line often and/or to cycle at reduced loads for extended periods.
  2. The Goal is not to constantly fire costly startup and/or support fuel.
  3. R-V’s High Turndown (HTD) coal nozzle assemblies provide the ability to fire 100% coal without support fuel at lower loads.

The High Turn Down Coal Nozzle was Developed for Tangentially Fired Boilers
