In this study, chemical composition dependency of both radiative properties of ash particles and radiative heat exchange are investigated for conditions typically encountered in industrial coal-fired furnaces. For that purpose, chemical composition dependent / independent complex index of refraction models are utilized to evaluate (i) spectral particle absorption efficiencies, scattering efficiencies and asymmetry factors, (ii) particle cloud properties representing pulverized coal fired furnaces (PC-Fired), bubbling fluidized bed combustors (BFBC), circulating fluidized bed combustors (CFBC) and (iii) radiative heat flux and source term predictions for five different ash compositions. Results show that spectral particle radiation is of significant importance for accurate calculation of radiative heat transfer in combusting systems and it is originated from the spectral nature of the complex index of refraction rather than spectral nature of the incident radiation. It is also seen that chemical composition has a significant effect on particle absorption properties as well as heat flux/source term predictions. Hence complex index of refraction models used in radiative property estimations must take into consideration this composition dependency. Accordingly, one spectral and one gray complex index of refraction models are recommended for the evaluation of ash particle properties.

Influence of gray particle assumption on the predictive accuracy of gas property approximations
Ates, CİHAN; Selçuk, Nevin; Külah, Görkem (2018-11-01)
In this study, influence of gray particle assumption on the predictive accuracy of gas property models is investigated for conditions typically encountered in industrial coal-fired furnaces. The aim is (i) to identify how the share of gas radiation is influenced by the presence of particles and particle properties and (ii) to determine the effect of gray particle assumption on the predictive accuracy of gas property approximations. For that purpose, predictive accuracy of a simple gas property model is benc...
Influence of soot on radiative heat transfer in bubbling fluidized bed combustors
Yaşar, Mehmet Soner; Selçuk, Nevin; Külah, Görkem (2021-08-01)
The effect of soot particles and aggregates on radiative heat transfer in bubbling fluidized bed combustors is investigated. For this purpose, a soot radiative property model based on Rayleigh scattering theory is coupled with in-house developed 1-D gray and spectral radiation codes and a 3-D spectral radiation code based on method of lines solution of discrete ordinates method for the application of (i) a 1-D slab problem involving combustion gases and soot and (ii) freeboard of a 0.3 MWt atmospheric bubbl...
Influence of spectral particle properties on radiative heat transfer in optically thin and thick media of fluidized bed combustors
Ates, Cihan; Sen, Ozge; Selçuk, Nevin; Külah, Görkem (2017-12-01)
In this study, influence of spectral particle properties on radiative heat transfer in the freeboard/dilute zone of fluidized bed combustors (FBCs) is investigated. The aim is to identify how important it is to involve spectral particle properties and to determine the predictive accuracy of gray Mie and gray Geometric Optics (GOA) approximations in optically thin and thick media by benchmarking their predictions against spectral solutions. For that purpose, input data required for modelling radiative heat t...
Significance of particle concentration distribution on radiative heat transfer in circulating fluidized bed combustors
Ates, CİHAN; Selçuk, Nevin; Külah, Görkem (2018-02-01)
In this study, effect of particle concentration distribution on radiative heat transfer in circulating fluidized bed combustors (CFBCs) is investigated. The aim is to identify how important it is to include axial and radial variations of particle concentration along the splash and dilute zones in radiative heat transfer calculations and to determine the predictive accuracy of simple OD and 1D approximations for particle concentration distribution in the riser by benchmarking their predictions against a semi...
Influence of coal briquette size on the combustion kinetics
Altun, Naci Emre; Bagci, AS (Elsevier BV, 2004-08-15)
In this study, the effects of one of the most important parameters in coal briquetting process, the briquette size, on the combustion behaviour of coal briquettes were determined from the view of combustion kinetics, i.e. their liability to ignite and combust. Effect of size on the combustion kinetics was treated by two different approaches. The first one consists of combustion kinetics experiments with briquettes of increasing sizes, thus of expanding volumes. In the second phase, briquette dimensions were...
