In this work, a comprehensive study of thermal processes and aerodynamic and concentration characteristics of the combustion chamber of the boiler BKZ-75 of the Shakhtinskaya thermal power plant (Kazakhstan) are presented. A comparison of the characteristics of the combustion processes for two cases is given for the direct-flow method of supplying the mixture - the burners are located on opposite-side walls and the swirl-air mixture supplying method - burners with a swirl angle of the air mixture flow and their inclination to the centre of symmetry of the boiler by 30 degrees. The research results allow us to determine the optimal technological parameters of the studied object, to improve the methodology for the numerical study of heat and mass transfer processes in high-temperature and chemically reacting flows in the presence of turbulence, and also develop appropriate technological solutions for installing burner devices (direct-flow or swirl) in the studied combustion chamber.
