Abstract
The report documents a second generation boiler transient analysis computer program DEPAB2. It treats in detail the boiler controllers and different modes of heat transfer (which include conductive, convective and radiative) in the boiler environment; and it is built upon 7 principal subroutines for the controller and interface flux calculations and 16 auxiliary subroutines for fluid properties, fuel/air combustion and heat transfer parameters. Also included is a guide on using DEPAB2.
