Abstract
In this study, a core-annulus model is implemented using a commercial IPSEpro software. The developed model consists of several modules. The mathematical principles of each module is described. The software is also presented briefly. The new model is applied to study the behavior of a large biomass boiler. The model inputs include mass flows of fuel and air, fuel type and parameters regarding the solids amount, size and distribution. In addition to inputs for the design operation, other scenarios are considered such as partial load and burning of different fuels. Strengths and weaknesses of the model are also assessed and pathways of future research are reviewed.
