OSTI ID:6504612

Significant accomplishments during FY 84 include completion of a series of bench-scale combustion tests on CWF's (coal-water fuel) of varying ash levels and compositions, development of an alkali and particulate sampling technique for field application on hot-cleaned coal-derived gas and gas combustion experiments, preliminary laboratory measurements of deposition-related sticking coefficients for coal ash, development of a unique technique for the study of coal-water droplet disruption and evaporation phenomena, and systems analysis and sensitivity studies on several direct coal-fired gas turbine concepts.
