THE SENSITIVITY OF PRESSURIZED FLUIDIZED BED COMBUSTION OF CHAR TO IN-BED PROCESSES AND THEIR PARAMETERS

pages 1662-1668

Abstract

A mathematical model of our batch-fed PFBC was developed incorporating the processes of char oxidation and secondary fragmentation during char combustion, but assuming that the loss of carbon by elutriation was negligible compared with the carbon consumption by oxidation. A sensitivity analysis was carried out to determine the important parameters in the model prediction of carbon loading.
