Fouling in convective parts of boilers is typical of the deposition of solid particles and condensable inorganic vapours. Particle sticking is caused mainly by gravity, adhesion, or the presence of a sticky liquid film of condensed vapours. Aside from the local conditions, particle properties and size determine whether they are sticking on the surface. This work focuses on simulations of particulate matter fouling of cooled tubes by fly ash produced by the combustion of industrial waste and sewage sludge mixture. Boundary conditions including the flue gas and particle flow rate are derived from combustion tests. Particle properties and size distribution are obtained from literature. The goal is to provide a basis for further modelling of the development of large deposits in tube bundles observed during a test on the experimental facility. Neither the combustion nor fly ash development is modelled. Their transport and deposition are simulated. Fixed boundary conditions are set for both the particulate and gas phases. The influence of already deposited particles on the surface mechanical properties and roughness is included to capture their deposition. The fly ash particles are considered completely solidified, considering the low flue gas temperatures on the facility inlet.
