The aim of this paper is to investigate the evolution of the temperature in a combustion reactor, full of pellets manufactured with fly ash, clay and charcoal powder, after sintering, to obtainment synthetic aggregates for use in civil construction. The pellets were produced in a cement mix. For realization of the work, a co-current combustion reactor was made in order to analyze the temperatures profile and investigate if the values of these temperatures would be sufficient to initiate the process of sintering of the pellets. Temperatures reached in the reactor varied in the range of 800 ℃-1,290 ℃. These values are sufficient to initiate the process of sintering of the pellets. For the experiment realized, parameters such as inlet velocity of the fluid （air）, diameters of the pellets and size of charcoal crushed in a disk mill were varied and the effect of variations of these parameters were analyzed for the experiment. The historical temperatures were recorded by a data acquisition instrument and subsequently plotted for analysis.展开更多

The isothermal model test and the combustion test give some encouraging results. In this studyt further improvement of the geometrical configuration was made, a visualizatiou method and a LDA system were used to study the gas-particle flow behavior,and the temperature and gas composition in combustion experiments were measured by using thermocouples and a COSA-6000-CD Portable Stack Analyzer. Stronger recirculation in the spouting zone and the strongly swirling effect in the cyclone zone were obtained in the improved combustor. The combustion temperature distribution is uniform. These results indicate that the improved geometrical configuration of the combustor is favorable to the stabilization of coal flame and the intensification of coal combustion, and it provides a basis for the practical application of this technique.展开更多

The flame temperature versus ignition time and the practical faSt ignition procedure were obtained; The stable coal combustion can be achieved after a short period ignition, and the temperature fields in SCC were obtained. These results show that it is possible to obtain highly efficient and clean combustion of unground coal particles by using this technology.展开更多
