Abstract
Devolatilization behavior of pulverized coal in a drop tube furnace (DTF) has been calculated with the measured gas temperature and velocity. The particle temperature and velocity were calculated from the energy and momentum equations of particle by using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. The volatile evolved from the particle along with the reactor tube was also calculated varying the wall temperature of reaction tube as well as the particle diameter. The optimal kinetic parameters of subbituminous coal were obtained from the volatile evolution data of the devolatilization experiment in the DTF by error minimization.
