Equations are derived for predicting sulphur retention, combustion efficiency and heat transfer coefficients in pressurised fluidised-bed combustors. The data are based on published results obtained from various NCB (CURL) combustors and from the IEA Grimethorpe combustor. Additional data on sulphur retention from Exxon, Argonne, and Curtiss-Wright combustors are utilised. In the absence of experimental investigations, the data are also used to predict the possible effect of recycle on sulphur retention. The operating conditions forming the data base are tabulated. 29 refs., 4 figs., 27 tabs.
