    Abstract: In this work, we are interested to simulate the transient thermal-hydraulic behaviour of 3-pass fire-tube boiler during a cold start-up. A transient thermal model has been developed based upon energy balance equations of the main components of the boiler and the relevant correlations describing heat transfer phenomena taking place. The variation of... Show More
