Fundamental study of the effects of moisture, air velocity, solids loading, and particle size on the pneumatic conveying of coal and coal-limestone mixtures

Technical Report Daw, C; Lackey, M; Thomas, J

Pneumatic conveying of coal and coal-limestone mixtures was evaluated on a conveying system designed to represent the branch feed lines of the TVA 20 MW(e) atmospheric fluidized bed combustor pilot plant. Conveying conditions were chosen to cover the anticipated operating ranges in the pilot plant. This study has led to a basic understanding of the design and operating problems associated with coal moisture, air velocity, coal fines content, solids loading, and limestone to coal ratio. Coal surface moisture was found to be the most important parameter affecting handling properties. Above critical level of about 6%, surface moisture caused severe compactionmore »« less
Pneumatic conveying of coal and coal-limestone mixtures as applied to atmospheric fluidized bed combustion

Journal Article Daw, C; Thomas, J - J. Powders Bulk Solids Technol.; (United States)

Pneumatic conveying experiments with coal and coal-limestone mixtures were performed on a conveying system designed to represent the feed lines in the Tennessee Valley Authority 20 MW atmospheric fluidized bed combustor. The experimental conditions were chosen to cover the anticipated combustor operating ranges. The results have led to a fundamental understanding of the operating limits associated with coal surface moisture, air velocity, coal and limestone fines, solids to air ratio, and limestone to coal ratio. Coal surface moisture was found to be the most important parameter affecting handling and transport. Specific upper limits for surface moisture were established. It wasmore »« less

Atmospheric fluidized-bed combustion coal feeding test program

Conference Daw, C; Thomas, J; Holcomb, R; ...

Development of a coal feeding and distribution system is one of the major requirements for successful operation of large scale atmospheric fluidized-bed boilers. Since combustion efficiency, sulfur capture, and tube corrosion are strong functions of coal distribution in the bed, the reliability of the feed system is critical. One proposed coal feeding method involves underbed feed nozzles, and pneumatic conveying is a key element in this method. Several technical problems are inherent in such systems. One program aimed at resolving these problems involves testing a pneumatic transport system constructed to represent the branch feed lines in TVA's 20 MW AFBCmore »« less
