Abstract
A theory has been proposed to evaluate the burning rate of a single carbon particle in a continuously operated coal-fired fluidized bed. Experimental verification was carried out in a laboratory scale 200 mm × 200 mm combustor. The burning rate increases with the increase of the fluidization velocity and the size of the bed material. The predicted data on burning rate agree fairly well with the experimental values. The gas concentration in the bed and freeboard has also been measured and it is seen that the consumption of oxygen mostly takes place in the bed.
