Abstract: A modular electrical substation for erection at a prepared site has a horizontal steel base formed of interconnected longitudinal and transverse beams and is set on the prepared site. An open top oil containment pan is centrally supported on the base and receives an electrical transformer therein. A pair of vertically extending frameworks formed of steel columns and connecting cross members are mounted on opposite ends of the base. One or more bays of circuit breakers and disconnect switches are supported on the base and frameworks. Incoming and outgoing conductors are dead ended on one or both of the frameworks which are connected by guy wires extending therebetween to distribute the conductor tension among the two frameworks. The central location of the transformer maintains the base in position on the prepared site avoiding the need for additional anchoring and/or foundations enabling the substation to be removable and reusable.
Abstract: A method and apparatus retrofitted to a multiple-intertube pulverized-coal burner to reduce NO.sub.x emissions of roof fired boilers. An internal two stage process controls the amount of secondary air which flows to the burner. The first stage includes a secondary air damper and air flow station to regulate the amount of air which flows into a windbox of the burner. A baffle plate assembly which includes a plurality of baffle plates further limits the amount of air which flows to the core of the burner for combustion of the fuel. The baffle plates create a pressure drop within the windbox which forces or diverts a quantity of air to the periphery of the burner. The second stage includes an outlet formed in the hot primary air duct, an air plenum which communicates therewith, and a plurality of interjectory air ports which correspond with the burners in number and position along a front wall of the boiler and which communicate with the air plenum.
