Dust removal efficiency of high pressure atomization in underground coal mine

To master theoretical calculation for dust removal efficiency of high pressure atomization in an underground coal mine, the corresponding atomization characteristics and dust removal efficiency were both comprehensively studied in theory by virtue of related theories of hydromechanics and aerosol.According to actual measurements of flow coefficients and atomization angles of X-type swirl nozzle,computational formula was derived for atomized particle sizes of such a nozzle in conjunction with relevant empirical equation. Moreover, a mathematical model for applying high pressure atomization to dust removal in underground coal mine was also established to deduce theoretical computation formula of fractional efficiency. Then, Matlab was adopted to portray the relation curve between fractional efficiency and influence factors. In addition, a theoretical formula was also set up for removal efficiency of respirable dust and total coal dust based on dust size and frequency distribution equations. In the end,impacts of dust characteristic parameters on various dust removal efficiencies were analyzed.

Water film area and dust removal efficiency of string grilles:a theoretical analysis

Based onmultiphase flowtheory and capillary mechanics,the dimensionless bond number expression of the influence of string grille wire spacing on droplet spreading is derived.Taking a liquid film formed by spreading droplets based on Kelvin correlation,the Young-Laplace equation,and the Hagen-Poiseuille law,an equation for calculating the thickness and height of the liquid film is established with temperature,relative humidity and molar volume of liquid phase as independent variables.According to the theory of string grille filtration and dust removal,a dust removal efficiency calculation model covering the wet string grille wire group is constructed based on the liquid film thickness,height,wire diameter,water film area,and vortex shedding frequency.Finally,a theoretical analysis of the influence of water film area on the efficiency of wet string grille dust removal is carried out based on the spray pressure and the ratio of string grille wire distance to wire diameter.It is found that the effect of spray pressure on water film area and dust removal efficiency is more significant than the string grille wire distance diameter ratio.Moreover,the optimized combination of wet string grille wire distance diameter ratio 0.84,wind speed 3m/s and spray pressure 0.8 MPa is found,which could provide an important reference for engineering applications.

As the main equipment of flue gas dedusting in coal fired boiler,electrostatic precipitator(ESP)can meet the requirements of emission standard for air pollutants from coal-fired power plants through improving the efficiency of ESP and combining with desulfurization system while not installing wet ESP(WESP).This paper introduces the modifications of ESP cathode structure to improve the efficiency of dust collection by reducing the secondary dust loss at cathode.The application of cathode dust collection provides a reference for the improvement of ESP dust collection efficiency.

Numerical Simulation of Dust Removal in the Cyclone Collector of a Straw Crusher Based on a Discrete Phase Model

The cyclone dust collector is an important subsystem of straw crushers used in agriculture.In the present study,a new type of dust collector with involute morphology is proposed to obtain better dust removal efficiency with respect to that of classical tangential and spiral dust collectors.A discrete phase model(DPM)method is used in synergy with a turbulence model,and the SIMPLE algorithm to simulate the flow field inside the dust collector and the related particle dynamics.It is shown that the internal flow field features a primary swirl,a secondary swirl and blockage effects.Moreover,for the involute dust collector,the tangential velocity in the initial stage and the pressure in the high-pressure area are larger than those obtained for the classical types.The dust removal efficiency is 37.11%,25.3%,and 16.37%for the involute type dust collector,the tangential type and the spiral type,respectively.

Research on the application of the wet scrubber on the BSSF slag processing system at Baosteel

Based on the analysis results of the dust size distribution of flue gas from Baosteel＇s short-flow （BSSF） slag processing system and the mechanism of the wet scrubber,a wet scrubber system was designed and installed in the No. 1 BSSF slag processing system at Baosteel. The results show that the dust removal efficiency of the previous system that had conventional water nozzles was only 69% with a liquid-gas ratio of 0.79 L/m^3 ,while the dust removal efficiency reached 94% when three sets of high-efficiency dual phase spray guns were installed inside both the flue and the chimney. For the latter system,the liquid-gas ratio was 0. 84 L/m^3 ,and the dust concentration in the cleaned emissions reduced to less than 40 mg/m^3.

Filtration characteristics of a binary multi-layer granular bed flter based on CFD-DEM coupling simulation

The coupled CFD-DEM method with the JKR(Johnson-Kendall-Roberts)model for describing the contact adhesion of dust to filter particles(FPs)is used to simulate the distribution pattern of dust particle deposition in the granular bed filter(GBF)with multi-layer media.The minimum inlet flow velocity must meet the requirement that the contact probability between dust and FPs is in the high contact probability region.The air flow forms vortices on the leeward side of the FPs and changes abruptly at the intersection of different particle size FPs layers.Dust particles form large deposits at the intersection of the first and second layers and the different particle size filter layers.Dual element multilayer GBF can further optimize the bed structure by interlacing filter layers with different particle sizes.Compared with single particle size multi-layer GBF,the bed pressure drop is reduced by 40.24%-50.65%and the dust removal efficiency is increased by 21.93%-55.09%.
