Combustion of synthetic fuels. Proceedings of the Symposium, Las Vegas, NV, March 28-April 2, 1982

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6611207
Various topics on the combustion of synthetic fuels are addressed. The subjects considered include: overview of research issues and technology, analysis and modeling of combustion emissions of synthetic fuel components, synthetic fuel atomization characteristics, bench-scale pyrolysis-oxidation studies of coal-derived liquids, nonequilibrium distillation effects in vaporizing droplet streams, and intermediate Btu gas global flame kinetics. Also discussed are: fuel nitrogen conversion in jet-stirred combustors, synthetic fuel character effects on a rich-lean gas turbine combustor, combustion of coal-derived fuel oils, soot formation from synthetic fuel droplets, effect of liquefaction processing conditions on combustion characteristics of solvent-refined coal, and small-scale combustion testing.
