Abstract
- Two in situ optic methods on CH ∗ chemiluminescence and coal particle temperature, are newly applied to investigate the devolatilization/homogeneous and heterogeneous ignition behaviors of dispersed coal particle streams, with ambient temperature from 1200 K to 1800 K and oxygen mole fractions from 10% to 30%. The dispersed coal particles of 65–74 μm are injected into an optical Hencken flat-flame burner by a novel de-agglomeration feeder. First, the consecutive images through multiple filters near CH ∗ emission band, centered at 420 430 and 440 nm, are exquisitely processed to subtract the interferences from continuum blackbody radiation of particles and soots in the CH ∗ band. Then, the signal of CH ∗ chemiluminescence is capable of providing a good indicator of the coal devolatilization process. Secondly, 3 color pyrometry is adopted to detect particle surface temperature and determine the heterogeneous ignition delay time. The prevalent devolatilization/homogeneous-ignition are observed at high temperatures (1500 and 1800 K) with apparent CH ∗ signals, whereas CH ∗ emission can rarely be detected in the initial stage of 1200 K case that implies a dominated heterogeneous ignition mode. The effect of oxygen concentration on devolatilization is further discussed. The particles temperatures history after injected into Hencken burner are represented by 3 color pyrometry based on a two stage principle, and thus the role of oxygen in determining particle temperature and heterogeneous ignition is finally examined.
