In order to predict the performance parameters of a regenerative melting aluminum furnace new designed based on the regenerative combustion technology, the computational fluid dynamics numerical simulation method was used to study its combustion characteristics. Flow field, temperature field and mass fraction of pollutant NO were numerically simulated for the furnace by using the k-ε turbulence model, Eddy-Dissipation Concept combustion model, P-1 radiation equation, and NOX pollutant model respectively of the ANSYS-Fluent software. The result shows a short circuit of the flue gas appears when the regenerative burner is arranged on the same side furnace wall, at the same time, the distribution of the temperature field is uneven. The researcher carried out structural transformation of the aluminum melting furnace. Compared with the furnace before modification, the furnace that the regenerative burners installed in the middle of both sides wall ensures temperature field distribution more uniform and reduction of the NO emissions at furnace outlet.
