To investigate the gas-solid flow non-uniformity and its main influencing factors, an experimental study was carried out in the cold-test rig of an annular furnace CFB with six cyclones. The influence of furnace structure and cyclone arrangement on the non-uniformity of gas-solid flow was obtained. On the basis of these findings, the structure of the annular furnace CFB with six cyclones was optimized, and an optimal structure was obtained. The results show that for newly designed annular furnace CFBs, the non-uniformity of gas-solid flow among loops is no greater than that of traditional CFBs. In terms of uniformity, side cyclones rotating inward are superior to those rotating outward. The position of the side cyclones determines the basic solid circulating rate distribution trend and can dramatically improve flow non-uniformity. The middle cyclone positions and the symmetric modes of the cyclones do not determine the solid circulating rate distribution trend and have less effect on DEVGs. Forty-five degree chamfers of outer ring walls can reduce wall erosion and the non-uniformity of gas-solid flow in the circulating fluidized bed. Regarding the operating and structural conditions in this work, the optimal structure of annular furnace CFBs is Type 6: side cyclones rotating inward and b = a/2, d = 0.1c; the center of the middle cyclone inlet located at the centerline of the furnace cross-section; cyclones on the two sides of the furnace in an axisymmetric arrangement; and a furnace corner shape of 45° chamfers. Under the given operating conditions, the DEV_(Gs) for the optimal structure are approximately 4.0%~10.3%.展开更多
