Characteristics Of The Solid Volume Fraction Fluctuations In A Cfb, Sirpa Kallio, Juho Peltola, Veikko Taivassalo
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
In the paper, the fluctuation characteristics of the solids volume fraction in a CFB are evaluated from measurements and Eulerian-Eulerian CFD simulations. In both cases, similarly large fluctuations are observed in the intermediate voidage range whereas dense and dilute suspension regions are more uniform, as expected. The frequency distributions of solids volume fraction are classified to represent three different suspension density regimes: dilute, dense and intermediate “bimodal” regimes.

10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Eulerian granular multiphase model with meso-scale modeling of drag coefficient and mass transfer coefficient, based on the energy minimization multi-scale (EMMS) model, was presented to simulate a 150 MWe CFB boiler. The three-dimensional (3D), full-loop, time-dependent simulation results were presented in terms of the profiles of pressure, solids volume fraction and solids vertical velocity, the distributions of carbon and oxygen, as well as the temperature. The EMMS-based sub-grid modeling allows using coarse grid with proven accuracy, and hence it is suitable for simulation of such large-scale industrial reactors.

The Research Of Cfb Boiler Operation For Oxygen Enhanced Dried Lignite Combustion, Wojciech Nowak, Waldemar Muskala, Jaroslaw Krzywanski, Tomasz Czakiert
10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
The paper presents the research of CFB boiler operation for oxygen-enhanced dried lignite combustion. The combustion in oxygen-enhanced conditions generally leads to reducing the emissions of CO and NOx and N2O due to reduced volume of flue gas. The maximum oxygen content for oxygen-enhanced combustion in O2/N2 conditions should not exceed 60%, however, the maximum drying extent of fuel should not be higher than 50% of the initial moisture content in an examined lignite.

10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Combustion of three Polish and one South African bituminous coal particles in air versus O2/CO2 mixtures with oxygen concentrations in the range from 21% to 60% vol. was conducted at temperature of 850°C in a 12 kW bench-scale CFB combustor. Combustion in air was proceeded at ~50˚C higher centre temperatures and was slightly shorter in time compared to combustion in O2/CO2 mixture with 21% vol. O2. Larger heat capacity of CO2 compared to that of N2 also retards the ignition of volatiles in O2/CO2 mixtures with 21% O2. However, when the concentration of oxygen in O2/CO2 mixtures is larger than …

10th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds and Fluidization Technology - CFB-10
Oxy-fuel circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) can use calcium based sorbents, primarily limestone, for the in-situ capture of much of the sulfur dioxide in the fuel. Under oxy-fuel CFBC conditions, the CO2 content is usually high, and at high combustor temperatures sulfur capture can occur in two steps, calcination and then sulfation. The typical Ca utilization ratio in oxy-fuel CFBCs is less than half. When temperature is below the calcination temperature while remaining exposed to a high CO2 environment, recarbonation of unused CaO may occur. This reaction between calcium oxide and carbon dioxide has the potential to create serious operational …

The pressure balance and mass balance are influenced by the characteristics of different components in the loop of a circulating fluidized bed (CFB). Experiments were conducted in a 4.3 m high cold laboratory CFB test rig with a loop seal. With a fixed bed inventory and superficial gas velocity, the pressure drop of the loop seal decreased with increasing aeration, thus causing an increase in the solid circulation flux (Gs). Correspondingly, the pressure drop in the riser became higher with increasing Gs; the pressure drop of the cyclone had a non-linear relationship with Gs, and the transition point was determined …
