(1) The high temperature flame in the boiler furnace conducts radiation heat transfer to the water wall, so that the working medium in the water wall absorbs heat and gradually changes from water to a mixture of steam and water to complete the evaporation process of the working medium.
(2) A certain area of water cooling wall is laid in the furnace, which absorbs a large amount of heat from the high-temperature flue gas, so that the flue temperature near the furnace wall and at the furnace exit can be reduced to below the softening temperature of the ash, preventing slagging on the furnace wall and the heating surface, improve the safety and reliability of boiler operation.
(3) After laying the water wall, the temperature of the inner wall of the furnace wall can be greatly reduced, the furnace wall is protected, the thickness of the furnace wall can be reduced, the weight can be reduced, the structure of the furnace wall is simplified, and the conditions for the use of light furnace walls are created.
(4) Since the radiative heat transfer is proportional to the fourth power of the flame thermodynamic temperature, and the convection heat transfer is only proportional to the first power of the temperature difference, the water wall is the evaporative heating surface dominated by radiation heat transfer, and the flame temperature in the furnace is proportional to the fourth power. It is also very high, so the use of water-cooled walls saves metal compared with the use of convection evaporation tube bundles, thereby reducing the cost of the heating surface of the boiler.
