Calculating the solid fuel combustion process in a cyclone reactor

A mathematical model is proposed that describes the combustion of coal particles in the second stage of a cyclone reactor consisting of four cylindrical section. In the first stage, the fuel is additionally dried and supplied from it to the second stage with the temperature T out and concentration C out . The parameters of a burning particle were calculated according to the model of concentrated ash residue. A satisfactory agreement is obtained between the calculated data and results from temperature profile measurements in the reactor’s second stage volume.
