Alkali Removal at About 1400 °C for the Pressurized Pulverized Coal Combustion Combined Cycle. 1. Thermodynamics and Concept

Enthalpy Calculation for Pressurized Oxy-coal Combustion

Oxy-fuel combustion is recognized one of the most promising available technologies that zero emission accomplishment may be in the offing. With coal burned under the pressure of 6MPa and oxygenenriched conditions, the high temperature and high pressure gaseous combustion product is composed of 95% CO2 and water-vapor, with the rest of O2, N2 and so on. However, once lauded as classic approach o...

Interactive System for Pulverized Coal Combustion Visualization with Fluid Simulator

Designing pulverized coal combustion simulation and visualization systems is still a complex task. The current solutions, such as the commercial CFD packages are focused on the precision of the computation. Our solution is suited to the education and computer graphics area, where the precision does not take the first, but also not the last place. The main factor in our solution utilizes the int...

Pulverized Coal Combustion: the Influence of Flame Temperature and Coal Composition on Thermal and Fuel

A laboratory combustor was used to investigate the factors that influence the conversion of fuel nitrogen in coal during coal combustion. Fuel NO was isolated by experimentation utilizing Argon/Oxygen/Carbon Dioxide mixtures as the oxidant, and care was taken to compare cases with air at matched conditions. For both well mixed and slowly mixed flame types, fuel NO contributed over 75% of the to...

Characterization of Nano-Ashes Generated during Pulverized Coal Combustion

Model of pulverized coal combustion in a furnace

We describe behavior of the air-coal mixture using the Navier–Stokes equations for gas and particle phases, accompanied by a turbulence model. The undergoing chemical reactions are described by the Arrhenian kinetics (reaction rate proportional to exp ` − E RT ́ , where T is temperature). We also consider the heat transfer via conduction and radiation. Moreover we use improved turbulence-chemist...
