Consumption of coal is maximum for power generation. Efficiency improvement of power generation by controlling combustion of coal in boiler, will reduce cost of electricity generation, conserve coal and reduce air pollution. For combustion of coal in boiler two types of air are used. Primary air which carries coal to boiler and secondary air which is the additional air required for combustion. This paper is about improving efficiency of boiler by controlling primary air as a function specific coal consumption, keeping the total air flow same.
