A sootblower may be operated manually or by a remotely controlled motor.

It is difficult to study the characteristics of sootblower flow in an actual operating boiler due to the hostile environment.

One of the most challenging problems in simulating sootblower jet flow is to deal with turbulence modelling.

An air heater sootblower was used to inject steam at an approximate rate of 1kg/84kg of gas.

Cormack on sootblower jets and removal of deposits in the kraft recovery boilers.

A sootblower is a device for removing the soot that is deposited on the furnace tubes of a boiler during combustion.

In order to assess sootblower cleaning performance and to optimize the boiler cleaning process, the characteristics of sootblower flow have to be well understood.

If it were possible to design a sootblower nozzle that would allow effective deposit removal at a lance pressure of 160 psig, the steam could be supplied from the intermediate header.
