Commercial Design Of Four Indirect-Fired Fluidized Bed Gasifer Systems, Eoin Myles Clancy
Commercial Design Of Four Indirect-Fired Fluidized Bed Gasifer Systems, Eoin Myles Clancy
Masters Theses
"This thesis deals with the design and cost analysis of four scaled up gasification plants. Reactor outputs range from 10 to 40 million Btu/hr (heating value of gas). Scale-up design parameters are based on data obtained from a 20 inch indirectly heated steam fluidized bed gasifier. This produces a medium Btu gas (450 Btu/ft3). The gas may be burnt on site or used as a chemical feedstock.
The plant designs consider reactor sizes, steam plant dimensions, specifications for feedhoppers, cyclones, conveying equipment, internal firetube heat exchangers, and drying plants.
The economic analysis deals with the cost of the …

Generalized root-loci techniques, for squirrel-cage motors have been extended to wound-rotor, slip-energy-recovery systems (static Scherbius drive). The influence of a feedback control loop on these root loci is considered. General conclusions on Scherbius drive dynamics, as well as supporting experimental results, are presented.
