Title: Particulate sampling and characterization in coal-gasification systems: fine-particulates behavior in species concentration and temperature-gradient fields. Volume II. 1. Part II: well-mixed tank (CSTR). Final report. [Particulate sampling from a continuous stirred tank reactor]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6896878

Particulate sampling experiments were carried out sampling both from a straight tube and from a continuous stirred tank reactor. Mathematical models for both were developed. Volume 2 is devoted to sampling from the stirred tank reactor; a different model was necessary. Thermophoresis was important with high temperature gradients; with fine particles (> 0.1 ..mu..m) Brownian diffusion and, at high concentrations, coagulation were important; for larger particles (> 1 ..mu..m) sedimentation was more important.
